Screen blocked with "This device wants to use your iCloud account"

I continuously keep getting this message for one of my MacBooks on another MacBook: "This device wants to use your iCloud account".


It doesn't go away but instead keeps notifying with additional cards on the right side of the screen. I've tried to approve/deny but it doesn't help.


It's annoying and frustrating. I have to keep dismissing 1000s of notifications all day.


Other details:

  • macOS Big Sur 11.5.2
  • MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)
  • Chip: Apple M1
  • 16GB
