I actually just landed in the EU for the first time since 2014, and i'm honestly quite pleased with the notifications i'm getting (albeit not the ones discussed here). The first time I opened AirBnB since landing, it asked me permission for all the data it wanted to collect for targeted advertizing, and I was actually able to turn off most of it. I wish the US had the same.

The website popups are quite annoying, but those are easier to control anyway by picking better browsers and extensions.
