Hello there

Since a few days, actually it seems to have started since having interviews at Google, I have a popup coming-up asking me to connect with Google and it's supposedly more convenient and easier. But I don't like Google products. Is there a way to permanently disable this popup?

I have it on my Mac with Firefox and also on my iPhone with Safari.

I couldn't find anything about this popup.

PS: that option is disabled in my google account

I had this recently with eBay....🤨

In Safari Preferences (on Mac), Websites tab, open site then when it shows in list select Block in the 'pop up windows' category.

Thanks but have you tried other devices? I tried my Mac mini with Safari the popup is blocked. But not on Firefox.

This is the URL

https://accounts.google.com/gsi/iframe/select?client_id=49625052041-kgt0hghf445lmcmhijv46b715m2mpbct.apps.googleusercontent.com&ux_mode=popup&ui_mode=card&as=o1016aQgCuLPoOZzff67GQ&is_itp=true&channel_id=ccf144ce4d76d64fc4c99d6a197eff3dff12825a79eadb75b1c832e49d3f5b38&origin=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com

I'd like to block it, what custom filter shall I use for uBlock Origin?

EDIT: it seems I managed to block it by adding the following URL in my uBlock Origin filters:

https://accounts.google.com/gsi/iframe/select

It doesn't show up in Safari on my iPad, but I do have Adguard installed.
I don't use Firefox or uBlock sorry.

It’s gone…must have been an issue with my Adblock. I really hate Google so much.
It typically only shows up the first time you visit the site that has Google as a login option. It showed up on Glassdoor for me, but when I re-loaded the page it didn't pop-up.

That’s weird because on my side it was showing every time. I just tried again now and it’s back. So so weird
