I wouldn't mind so much if I had spent a fair amount of time on a site, and that was because I was interested in the information I found there, that a little thing popped up when I was about to LEAVE...

But when I see a little pop up box saying 'Let us send you updates' and I have not even looked at the site yet (It hasn't even fully loaded) I think... FUCK THAT !
Perhaps the site should ask for notification permission after you have spent X amount of time on the site? Or after you read X article/viewed X movie?

That's an interesting idea. That would actually provide value instead of bombarding the user.
