If a website asks me to show notifications, to get my location or access my microphone before I even start to read what it is about, it fully deserves a permanent NO to any kind of permission.

Offer me notifications after you notice that I came back a couple of times to your website, ask me to autoplay the video the moment I play the video by hand. Remind me to grant permission to use the microphone the moment I try to start a video call.

Websites (and web developers) should learn to be _polite_.
