Net01.biz

Posted: August 27, 2020

Net01.biz is one of several websites designed to promote a low-effort tactic that tries to access your Web browser's notifications. The tactic is also found on the websites net02.biz, net03.biz, net04.biz, net05.biz, and falling for it can be a very annoying thing to experience. These pages try to convince visitors that they have to press 'Allow' to confirm that they are not robots and continue browsing. However, pressing this button will result in granting Net01.biz permission to display browser notifications.

Needless to say, a website that uses false instructions to get access to your browser notifications does not plan to use these permissions to entertain you. As soon as Net01.biz is allowed to use notifications, it may begin to deliver paid advertisements to your browser on a regular basis. Since the page is able to abuse browser notifications, you will see these advertisements at all times, even while browsing ad-free pages.

To erase the issue, you will need to visit your Web browser's 'Site Settings' menu, find Net01.biz, and remove its ability to use notifications.
