If I ran a website that supported Google-account login, I'd be pretty pissed at how they're suddenly putting up an obnoxious overlay over my site's layout.

Why is this not bothering more people? Does anyone give a shit about their websites anymore?

Does Google?

@marcoarment i just always close this popup with no doubts anyway. For me this popup is just one more signal about bad site quality, so i try to avoid signup or use one time fake emails if i really need some service.

The conclusion is, this popup makes any site doesn't look serious and you will lose some clients.

@marcoarment the “users can log in easier and therefore buy more” business incentive far outweighs the “but our product should look nice”

@marcoarment I hate it. My daughter keeps logging into Sheen using her Google account. Like they have enough of your info, didn't give them anymore.

@marcoarment the ubiquity of stuff like this - or “mobile” websites where images pop in out of nowhere, modals take over the screen, and overall performance is absolute dog poop - leads me to believe the answer is “no”

@marcoarment I hate the ever loving f*ck of this. Something like 90% of sites I visit do this and I can’t for the life of me find a way to stop it directly.

@marcoarment the web today is impossible to navigate without an ad blocker, dns blocker and annoyances / cookie notices blocker.

@marcoarment This has been happening to me on eBay. I only sign in for bidding and transactions, not for browsing.

@marcoarment TripAdvisor has an extra UI element that they tack onto this, which is wild
