  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
