What kind of page is globalaeetes[.]org?
Globalaeetes[.]org is a rogue page discovered by our researchers during a routine investigation of suspect websites. Upon examination, we determined that this webpage promotes browser notification spam and generates redirects to other (likely dubious/hazardous) sites.
Most visitors to globalaeetes[.]org and pages of this kind access them via redirects caused by websites that utilize rogue advertising networks.
Globalaeetes[.]org overview
It must be mentioned that the behavior of rogue websites might be different based on the visitor's IP address (geolocation). In other words, this information may influence the content encountered on and through these pages.
When we visited globalaeetes[.]org, it presented us with fake CAPTCHA verification – "Click 'Allow' if you are not a robot". The "Allow" button is not part of any verification test; it is the consent option to the webpage's browser notification delivery. The quality of this deception is diminished by the inclusion of opting in/out information on browser notifications, which is uncommon for such sites.
Rogue websites use their notifications to run intrusive ad campaigns. The delivered advertisements promote online scams, untrustworthy/harmful software, and even malware.
In summary, through pages like globalaeetes[.]org – users can experience system infections, serious privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
