100% of "use" of it I've seen on the desktop has been spammy sites no sane person would ever want to receive notifications from bugging me to enable them because I made the mistake of clicking them in search results, and my wife accidentally enabling notifications from random sites, getting spammed, and having no idea how they've managed to do that or how to disable it. That's why I've hoped Apple'd never support them on iOS, and wished they'd never supported it on desktop.

As someone posted elsewhere in the thread, I hope Apple restricts requests to sites you've added as an "app" already. And I hope they find a way to keep sites from being able to tell you've "installed" them, so actually-useful sites or ones that I have no choice but to use (work, kids' school stuff) can't refuse to operate until I do that (I dunno, maybe they already do, I never "install" sites)
