Whenever an app does that, I take away notification privileges immediately.

Right? Like "You wanted me to notice you? Oh I noticed you now. And while I'm aware of you, let's just go ahead and take away some of your permissions...."

I uninstalled the Carl's jr app because it's notification sound was of someone taking a bite of something but exaggerated and more like what you would expect from a cartoon character. That shit made me uninstall it fast, I know I could have just disabled notifications, but my phone making that sound at me randomly when I was in the middle of something pissed me off.

Oh right, like Cheat Engine that laughs at you.

80% of the time I do this with the button that revokes all other privileges too: "uninstall"

Depending on how useful the app is, that’s generally the next step.
