Google keeps asking me to sign in with my Google Account

Often when I visit a website, I get this pop up asking me to use my Google account to sign in. This happens sometimes even when I have no sign-in at all to the website in question.


If this happened in Chrome, I would understand it, but it happens in Safari. I personally don't believe in trusting my passwords to third-party entities like Google, Facebook or the like except for third-party independent password managers.


Is this popup caused by some plugin or something?

I completely agree with you.

Unfortunately no.

Hi Timothy ,

It's no problem , it's optional for those who wish to use their platform to sign in . It's becoming increasingly popular , not all sites have " sign in with " , Apple does , and here's a link on how to use it , as well as two screenshots of examples .

The link you provided was about signing in with Apple, but my question was about a "Sign in with Google" popup.

SteelCityAnne was giving that to you as an example of how Apple has a similar service.


It is unlikely that you will be able to stop those popups to sign in using Google as they are served up by the website.
