Inspired by
|
||
|
|
[Rach Smith's post on using userstyles to hide YouTube shorts][rachsmith]
|
||
|
|
I came up with some CSS to hide those
|
||
|
|
annoying Sign in with Google pop-ups.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<!-- more -->
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I never want to sign in with Google and use [Firefox Multi-Account Containers][containers]
|
||
|
|
to ensure that the bulk of my browsing is done without ever being
|
||
|
|
signed in to a Google account. This means that I see a lot of these pop ups
|
||
|
|
encouraging me to sign in, so Google can track me more.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{{ figure_no(image="posts/2023/hide-sign-in-with-google/sign-in-with-google.png", border=true, width=357, alt="Screenshot of the pop up", caption="Be gone evil pop up") }}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I use [Stylus] to manage user styles. I created a new rule that applies to all
|
||
|
|
sites and put this CSS in there:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```css
|
||
|
|
#credential_picker_container:has(iframe[src*="accounts.google.com"]) {
|
||
|
|
display: none;
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that it uses the [`:has`][has] selector, which is not on by default in Firefox
|
||
|
|
at the time of writing. In Firefox 103 onwards you can enable it by toggling
|
||
|
|
`layout.css.has-selector.enabled` (the usual caveats about poking around in
|
||
|
|
[`about:config`][about-config] apply).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you do browse while signed in to a Google account, Aranjedeath on the Fediverse
|
||
|
|
pointed out that [you can turn them off in your account settings][Aranjedeath].
