Where/how do I block Google sign-in popups?

If it matters I’m on Fedora 42 using the package obtained through Brave’s Fedora 41+ (dnf5) instructions. There’s no extension to block Google pop-ups like on Firefox. Brave’s website and others I’ve found in searching say that in Settings there’s a social blocker that can be toggled. Problem is I don’t see one. Going to “brave://settings/socialBlocking” per the brave website returns an empty Settings page. Under Settings > Shields > Social media blocking, or by searching “social media”, reveals no Google entry; only Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

What do?

Should be blocked already, testing reddit google login popup. Doesn’t show me

I was able to confirm at least on Kubuntu and Windows, that Shields by default, prevent the Google sign in popup. What are your current shields settings?

If the issue isn’t with Reddit’s site, which site are you seeing the popup on? Maybe it’s site specific.

@nicholaicheck can you share a screenshot of the particular login pop up you’re referring to? I don’t see this in Brave or Chrome or FF – unless you’re referring to the Google SSO login option that appears when you click Login (using reddit as an example):

I haven’t seen a Google pop-up yet, I was mostly asking preemptively. I’m quite new to Brave and didn’t know the built-in functionality would do it for me. Thank you!
