* notification (if the auto-updater stops working).
*
* When there is an announcement, the `ANNOUNCEMENT_URL` endpoint should return an
* HTTP 200 status code with a JSON object like this:
*
* {
* "title": "WebTorrent Desktop Announcement",
* "message": "Security Issue in v0.xx",
* "detail": "Please update to v0.xx as soon as possible..."
