This applies particularly to CNN, when clicking onto a story at the home page, then clicking back to the home page. A black bar appears at the top of the screen, on the left side the message above and on the right side an "Allow" button and a X for closing that window. Clicking on the "Allow" results in the same notice being displayed.
