Doesn't that require you to be logged in with Google already?
- SquareWheel 4y ago
  Yes. If you're not logged in with Google, you won't get these prompts in the first place. edit: Some comments below suggesting this is mistaken. Sorry, I hadn't noticed that in the past.

    Don't you get the other one, about logging in with Google?
    - probably_wrong 4y ago
      Yes, you do.

    Not true at all. Happens even in incognito/private windows.

      Is this only whilst using Google Chrome? Cause technically most people on Chrome login to it

        I dont either but most people I know do. I use Firefox containers which deters that dialog if you get the multi account container plugin.

    Google has decided to show these popups by default to everyone that is browsing the web with tracking protection enabled since October 2022. This prompt has started to pop in our faces on most sites that integrate Google Sign-In as soon as we visit a page, often covering the content we are trying to view, and the website operators need to take specific steps to change the default behavior. We can only applaud DuckDuckGo for attempting to mitigate the destructive actions of Google. https://developers.google.com/identity/gsi/web/guides/itp#opt_in_before_oct_12_2022 https://developers.google.com/identity/gsi/web/guides/itp#op...

      Now this page is also broken (iOS Safari). The sidebar menu is open all the way and blocking most of the page. No way to close it. Nice work, Google!

The instructions in the “key takeaway” part are wrong. There is no “Google account Sign-in Prompts” option in the "Signing in with Google” section.

  They're not wrong, but there are two sections with similar names. Scroll down further to this box. https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/2-sign-in-google.png?trim=1,1&bg-color=000&pad=1,1 https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/2-sign-...

    Oops, thank you. One is “to”, and the other is “with”.

I don’t have a google/gmail account (never have, to my recollection), and this pop up is on nearly every page I visit. I can’t get rid of it because I don’t have an account to change the settings on. It’s made me despise google more than I previously did, which I didn’t think was possible. Thank you DDG for recognizing this infuriating issue. I don’t care if the search results are suboptimal. I love you anyway.
