    I think the latest versions of the browsers allow you to disable this.

    Any browser that doesn't allow you to disable notifications shouldn't be used. Major security-risk stuff.

      if you are talking about overlays you can use behind the overlay addon to disable it https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/behindtheoverlay/ljipkdpcjbmhkdjjmbbaggebcednbbme on chrome

      That works for some but more and more sites have gotten wise to the tactic. Instead they load a single screen's worth of content so it LOOKS like the real article and then slap an overlay on the top. If you disable the overlay (or just delete it using dev tools in Chrome) you discover that the rest of the content was never actually provided.

          ...are becoming more annoying than the ads. I'm referring to various sites other than CP, many are news sites, and many don't even let you continue with the ad-blocker in place unless you subscribe. As the saying goes, nothing is free. We need a blocker for the "you're using an ad-blocker!"
