I'm not sure about Chrome, but in Firefox I know I set the default permission to 'never' ask somewhere in about:config. The ideal life is one without unwanted notifications.

Is that dom.webnotifications.enabled? God I hope so, I don't know why I didn't look there sooner to turn off this crap.

Yeah that sounds about right. The other thing to disable is the full screen notification, which I think requires two keys now for some reason.

No need to drop to about:config... it's right there in the GUI for Privacy > Notifications -- a checkbox below the list of blacklisted sites.
