This flag in chrome://flags might be relevant. chrome://flags/#enable-autofill-credit-card-upload "Enables a new option to upload credit cards to Google Payments for sync to all Chrome devices. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, Fuchsia" They've really ramped up the "Google" in Google Chrome these last few years. The "save payment" nag box was annoying before, now I'd move it firmly into the dark pattern region, as it attempts to convince you to move your payment into their payment services not just saved locally. The fact that there is no "never ask me again" option for that save payment dialog seems like nefarious UI 101. How could a billion dollar company make such a rudimentary UI mistake in a flagship product? Well, they probably didn't make a mistake, they're just getting worse as a company. Meanwhile, I am blocked from reading any more of that twitter thread by the uncloseable twitter sign up nag screen. What an antagonistic web!

Replace twitter.com with nitter.net to view Twitter without the nagging

  Done, but it's the actual content of the site that is awful. So, undone.

As another example of increased Google services integration in Chrome whether you like it or not -- I have been trying to figure out how to turn off the "login with google" prompts everywhere -- the relevant flag in Chrome has not done it. Ironically, this may be what finally drives me back to Firefox!

  I don't think that will help, I get it in Firefox in both Android and OSX.

    ohhhh that explains why the Chrome flag doesn't turn it off! Chrome does have a built in "log in" screen, but I guess websites are embedding one similar enough that it confused me. Weird... do they offer this to everyone, or do they have tracking that lets them know i'm logged into google? I see it on media/news sites, among other places.
