Mediamodern.biz

Posted: June 16, 2020

Mediamodern.biz is the name of a domain that delivers the pop-ups associated with it, which can infect your Web browser. Mediamodern.biz will display a fake video player on its pages, prompting the visitor to click 'Allow' to watch the video. This is a fake screen, and the video is just a bait for the visitor to allow pop-up notifications from the website. Allowing the notifications will, of course, not play any video and will simply infect the browser with the unsolicited pop-ups from mediamodern.biz.

Similar fake messages sometimes prompt the user to allow notifications to prove they are not a robot, which, of course, is never the case with real anti-robot checks. Whoever is operating the mediamodern.biz domain decided to opt for a fake video player as the bait.

In case you use Chrome and have started seeing pop-ups from mediamodern.biz, click on the Chrome menu button in the upper-right part of the window, select Settings, click on Privacy and Security and then on Site Settings. In the new screen that shows up, you can select Notifications and finally remove mediamodern.biz from the list of websites with permission to send you notifications. Once the domain is removed from the list, you should stop seeing any pop-ups originating from mediamodern.biz.
