Push notifications should be a privilege, not a right.

    Most users are blindly accepting any and all requests by apps.

      Yeah but that’s really their problem. I mean, the OS literally asks them to allow it. What more can you do?

      At least Android also proactively asks them whether to disable notifications for an app if they always swipe them away, or if they haven’t used the app in a long time.
