How do we remove Safari daily location request pop up

I just bought a new MacBook Pro M5. With this laptop comes the newest system, safari and it's pop ups.

Every single day that I use Safari, I now have to cancel the pop up window asking to use my location. You can check the "remember for one day" box but it doesn't need to be said how ridiculous and annoying this is.

Are there any settings to prevent this from happening?

So many issues with Safari, if I can't fix this I'll have to go to another browser. It is really annoying how many things like this are showing up in Apple software. It seems we have to use other software if we want a smooth experience today. It should not be this way with Apple. It should be the opposite. Using Apple should be the smooth experience, not the other way around.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 26.1

That's not correct.

It is quite correct. Safari NEVER asks to allow a location request unless the website attempts to access your location. If you leave a tab open to a website that attempts to use location services then it will ask every day that the tab is open. This is for your privacy and security. Safari itself never asks for your location.
