REVOKE is not being as helpful as it could be here, perhaps:
it is failing to tell you that it's a no-op because there
is no such privilege.  You never granted connect on disp_db
to that user so you can't revoke it either.

The privilege that exists by default, per [1], is that
database connect privileges are granted to PUBLIC (the
pseudo-group of all users).  If that's not what you want,
you have to do

revoke connect on database "disp_db" from public;

and then grant it out again to the users who should have it.
