Comment on Blocking the "Sign in with Google" Prompt (2023)

Comments

There are several tutorials on the Internet on how to avoid this, for example, this one on How-To Geek, which suggest disabling an option in the Google account. However, this doesn't work, since mine is not enabled and never was:

I don't have google account (or better yet - I'm not logged in to it in any reasonable manner) yet the promp shows constantly :|

f* google

That suggestion for a fix never made sense because you get it on every device and browser. How would that work if you aren’t signed into Google in the first place?

I have a different Firefox profile to sign into Google with. For normal, everday browsing, I use another profile where I never sign in.
