Zen Google – Block Sign-in Popups & AI Overview

About

Zen Google quietly removes two of Google's most persistent interruptions:

• The "Sign in with Google" One Tap popup — the credential card that auto-appears on third-party sites. Blocked at the network level on every site, before it can even load. Want it on a few sites where you actually use Google sign-in? Keep an allowlist: click "Allow here" in the popup, or manage the full list on the options page.

• The AI Overview in Google Search — the AI summary block at the top of results. Choose the stable "Web-tab redirect" (lands you on plain results via udm=14, while Images, News, and Shopping tabs keep working) or an experimental "Hide on page" mode.

WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT
• Calm by design — a clean, minimal toggle for each annoyance, with light and dark themes.
• Per-site control — block One Tap everywhere by default, and allow it only on the sites you choose.
• Private — no account, no sign-up, no analytics, no data leaves your browser. Settings sync only through your own Chrome account.
• Lightweight — blocking happens at the network layer, so there's no flicker and no page-slowing scripts.
• Honest about limits — Chrome's newer native "FedCM" sign-in prompt is drawn by the browser and can't be hidden by any extension. Zen Google gives you a one-click shortcut to the Chrome setting that turns it off.

HOW IT WORKS
Open the toolbar popup and flip on what you want. The first time you enable a feature, Chrome asks for the site access that feature needs — nothing is requested at install time. Turn a toggle off and the original Google behavior fully returns; this isn't a cosmetic hide.

PERMISSIONS, PLAINLY
Zen Google asks for site access only when you switch a feature on, and only for what that feature needs. It never collects, transmits, or sells any data.

No backend, no accounts, no nonsense — just a calmer Google.
