Sign in with Google in Chrome

Does nobody find this intrusive when it appears on sites like pornhub? Of all places where I'd sign in with a Google account... holy heck, I was very surprised they chose to let Google do that nearly-fullscreen popup on their site upon every visit (since you visit in private tab, it's a fresh session every time)

Even on reddit it annoys the heck out of me and I was very surprised they let this third party ruin the experience (when they don't even do it as first party). What if they all start doing it, facebook and github and the lot, you need to click away four banners? But maybe not enough people have privacy extensions installed and reddit can just track them forever and thus store a one-time dismissal. Anyone here in the know whether this doesn't show a measurable drop in returning users?

That Google popups are so annoying, they often cover the content, I wonder does Google pay websites for this or they annoy users for free?

Also I don't understand who registers Google Accounts these days because every time I try to do this, they show a QR code and require to scan it with a mobile device, and I don't have time now to set up a virtual machine and research what it does to a mobile device and how one can bypass the check.

Also if you buy a Google Account it eventually requires linking a phone number, and doesn't accept most of the Russian numbers I buy.

So I don't understand how do other people sign up when there are so many obstacles. It is easier just to register email account elsewhere.

UBO rule to block that. Or enable the “annoyances” list. It hides annoying cookie bs too. Add noscript too.

I think this is referring to the FedCM api [1]

It works with providers other than Google, just no one else has implemented it yet. Google's One Tap library tries to use the new api, and falls back to the classic One Tap popup when using a browser that doesn't yet implement FedCM (notice how the chrome built-in one says "sign in with google.com" rather than "sign in with Google" like One Tap normally shows)

Mozilla are working on implementing it, but it's a pretty complex system so it'll take time. I presume Safari will as well if it gets popular enough
