What Is Hotnews1.me?
Hotnews1.me is a dubious site that attempts to con users into allowing it to send them notifications. Notifications are messages from sites that appear in the top-right corner of the screen on Macs and in the bottom-right corner on Windows computers. Hotnews1.me claims that users need to click Allow on its “Show notifications” pop-up box in order to access a page, confirm that they are 18+, verify that they are not bots, or for another reason. If someone does allow notifications from Hotnews1.me, the notifications will pop up from time to time with ads, links to dubious websites, scammy messages, etc.
