Irritating. I'm trying to extricate myself from Google entirely, but in the meantime I've used uBlock Origin to block the notification.

With what rule? I looked and it didn't seem like there was a good way to target it.

Should be able to click and block it in the Element Picker mode.

Right click, block element.

Enhanced Safe Browsing was released in 2007 as an upgrade to Google's standard Safe Browsing feature that warns users when they visit known phishing and malware sites.

That's gotta be a typo. Gmail itself came out in 2004, and I doubt that "Safe Browsing" and then "Enhanced Safe Browsing" both came out in the first three years.

I'm guessing it's supposed to be 2017?

Regardless of when it came out, the nagging prompts sure are annoying.

Thunderbird/FreeMail?

I don't use the website much at all anymore
