Whenever you see the in page popup “Login to Some Website with Google” that is an iframe back to Google servers. The less Google knows about me, the happier I am.

Is there a reliable mechanism similar to UBlock where I can just block them?

Web search’s have led to “guides” by Google on how to request they stop making it obvious they are tracking you.

    i have 3rd party frames blocked by default in ublock, as well as scripts from google. i assumed that blocks them? i did not actually check though and of course i need to turn the 3rd party frame blocking off when i want to see certain things (but really not as often as one might think) ;w;

      Oh nice, where is that in the settings? Is it one of the option filter lists or on another tab in settings?

        It’s buried in advanced settings. Preferences>Settings>I am an advanced user, then when you open the ublock panel on a website, you can disable 3rd party frames and scripts. As Oberon said, adding ‘accounts.google.com/gsi/client’ to My filters blocks google specifically.
