I had the thought for much the same reason. It amounts to a denial of service attack on the human psyche. There are places with laws about advertising pollution in public spaces. That needs to extend beyond advertising to a more general set of aggressive attention grabbing features, and to our digital lives, where we spend a huge amount of our time. It's not going to self-regulate. Ironically, the ubiquitous GDPR popups sort of broke a dam that have led to popups of all sorts being forced on us all over the place.
