I keep getting these notifications despite not having an RT tab open. What gives?

Disabling the notification is like breaking the thermometer. The actual right that seems to cause this is "Background synchronization".

Chrome settings -> Privacy and security -> Site Settings -> Permissions -> Background Sync

Websites in Chrome will ask you for permission before they display notifications. If you grant that permission, the site can send notifications even if no related tabs are open.

To revoke the permissions for RT.com:

  • On your computer, open Chrome
  • Go to rt.com
  • To the left of the web address, click the icon you see. (It will likely be a lock or information icon)
  • Click Site settings.
  • Change the Notifications setting. Your changes will automatically save.
