Everytime i search i keep getting popups with google asking me to sign in using google. No one is aking me to sign in and google is not my search engine. Google is the opposite of private and i believe its just another way to spy on me. I want it stopped. Im amazed you even allow the biggest spies on the internet to be part of your website!

Hi

What you are seeing is not part of Firefox or under Mozilla's control.

It is a service from Google that some of the websites you visit use to help sign into them.

If you have a G account, there is an option to disable that on its accounts page. Otherwise you could install uBlock Origin and activate two of its annoyances filter lists, namely, AdGuard Annoyances and uBlock filters - Annoyances.
