In the browser, i didn’t login in the google account, and I didn’t accept the cookies on that site. Using privacybadger that supposedly should block the 3rd party spyware like that

  1. Install UBlock Origin
  2. Click the extension’s icon
  3. Click the gears icon for settings
  4. Open the “My filters” tab
  5. Add a line with ||accounts.google.com/gsi/iframe/select?*

Steps 2 and 3 can be replaced by going to about:addons, finding UBlock Origin, clicking the ... button and selecting “Preferences”.

As an additional note this rule is already included in either EasyList – Other Annoyances or AdGuard – Popup Overlays. I recommend just enabling either full category for a more usable internet.

I can’t seem to block them by just enabling annoyances blocks on my end.

“EasyList – Other Annoyances” has this:

! Google signin popup
###credential_picker_container
###credential_picker_iframe

“AdGuard – Popup Overlays” has this:

! Warning: check, if auth using Google is not broken
||accounts.google.com/gsi/client^$third-party,script,domain=<several specific domains here>

My impression is that the rules want to avoid breaking Google sign-in completely, which this rule may do.

It must be the former because I have the latter enabled and still see them

Set your language to English: you’ll get the nag in English.

Sorry…

Seriously though, install Ublock Origin and block as many Google domains as possible. In Reddit, to get rid of that particular nag, block accounts.google.com and google.com.

Alternatively, don’t do Reddit.

Old reddit redirect or popup off could probably work as well (both are exentions on firefox).

Click the eye dropper symbol in uBlock, that opens the element picker.

Next, click the popup, and then preview > apply

As other people have mentioned, you can use uBlock Origin to hide these banners.

For Reddit specifically, I recommend using a private frontend called Redlib. You can install LibRedirect to automatically redirect all Reddit links to Redlib.

noscript stops these dead.

also stops most other nefarious things sites want to do in your browser.

also stops many good things, so your day to day surfing will encounter more friction, but be safer.

Technically yes, but the Google and Googlegetmanager scripts are used in so many cases that you want to keep them active permanently.
