It started in Chrome about a week ago, and I can't get rid of it no matter what I do. I've been searching for over an hour and I can't find anything online explaining where it came from or why I can't turn it off. Very annoying. >8l

I have been noticing more nonsense from Google as well of late.
Were you logged in to Google at the time? I find that if I am logged into Google (which happens without my consent sometimes?) then the spammy "Sign in with Google" pop-up appears way more often, especially if I visit Reddit for some awful reason.
If not, then we need to inspect that element and zap it.

They may have signed me in without my consent in the last week (they've done it plenty of times in the past.)

You didn't say which platform you are browsing on?

Welp, the damn thing seems to have finally decided to go away on its own. I had tried to use the uBlock right-click menu to block it manually, but I couldn't seem to click on it the way I can most website popups (possibly because it was popping up on the Chrome UI rather than the website.)
I think I'll not worry about it unless it turns up again. The good (though embarrassing) news continues: after 5 years, I just now figured out I can actually record PS4 using my HPVR by just turning off the encryption. Really wish I'd known that a long time ago!
