Facebook itself is a spyware that haunts you all over the network, if you have an account.
I believe this is also true even if you don't have a Facebook account.
Well, worse yet. But almost any site has a Fakebook tracker, by default everyone with a 'Share' button has at least one or several scripts.

@catweazle I agree about facebook. I used to have fb (and some other antisocial media) in my hosts file because of the way other sites irresponsibly enable it as mentioned by @wagner . I removed it because I had a few reasons for reluctantly and temporarily registering on fb.
On firefox, which like Vivaldi also sups with the devil, I use noscript, and this removes the need for an ad blocker as ads nearly always use third party scripts. I have not been using Vivaldi for long, and if I continue I may look into script blockers including your suggestions. However, my main use for Vivaldi is for sites that don't work well on firefox, possibly because of what I'm blocking. So many sites that you should be able to trust, you can't because they enable so many predatory and parasitical third parties. It gets worse and worse.

@catweazle "fakebook": nice--I often say faceache, but maybe I'll change to fakebook.

It's funny that the Fakebook page really exists

This link will help you disable browser push notifications
Go here to disable push notification on vivaldi "chrome://settings/content?search=notification"
There is a button to disable push notification and delete websites that you have agreed to have push notification delivered to your browser -
Replying to a bit old thread, but since this is the exact subject, I hope it's OK.
Anyway, I set "chrome://settings/content?search=notification" to "blocked", but it makes no difference. Push notification requests still pops up. This is Vivaldi 1.13.1008.44. Is it a regression?
By the way, the setting does work in Chrome.
