So…who hates those Google log-in pop-ups that are seemingly everywhere now? Wanna make them go away?

1. Get uBlock Origin (which you should have already been using):

github.com/gorhill/uBlock

2. Open the plugin and click the settings button.

3. Click on the “my filters” tab and paste this into the input:

||accounts.google.com/gsi/*$xhr,script,3p

That’s it! Worked flawlessly for me.

but uBlock Origin is deprecated now that Google has pushed all Chromium based browsers on from manifest v2 to v3...

The author has created uBO-lite for MV3, which is slightly less functional but works fine for me. Otherwise you will need to switch to AdGuard or one of the other alternatives which are MV3 compatible.

Or you could like, not use Google and use uBlock Origin to block Google trackers from all other websites (which you should have already been doing).

@PaulaToThePeople who said I am or was using Google anything? These pop up as prompts to log-in to lots of sites not related to Google. I don’t use any Google products.

Yeah, well I block everything from Google, so my issue with the internet is rather that search engines will show me mostly websites that don't work as top results. 😉

Never seen them. Perhaps the #Vivaldi built in tracker/ad blocker has taken them out.

Or they don't show them to people in GDPR countries?

@leeloo
There's a setting in Vivaldi to disable them.
