Chrome (and I assume others) put a checkbox to prevent the webpage from opening to popups in the popups if a site does it to often.

Edge does it as well, but I advise people not to click buttons on malicious webpages. So the fact that you have to click the button on the malicious webpage several times to get the option to disable it is very irritating.
