Pushark.info is a Web page that specializes in hijacking the Web browser notifications of the users who come across it. The page does by using a very simple trick – it shows a fake video player, and prompts the user to click on the 'Allow' button to enable video playback. However, the 'Allow' button is not related to any videos, and it is meant to enable Pushark.info's notifications. If you fall for this trick, you may unknowingly subscribe to Pushark.info's notifications, and allow the website to regularly display browser notifications while you browse your favorite websites.

The notifications of Pushark.info are not considered to be trustworthy, and they may often promote shady content such as gambling sites, adult dating services, and online scams. It is best to avoid the links they advertise and to take the required steps to eliminate Pushark.info's notifications from your browser.

The best way to get rid of undesired Web browser notifications is to identify the website causing the problem, and then remove its permissions from the Web browser's settings.
