Why do I keep getting this 'Pop-Up' from google (with it be may Home Page) when I start a Browser session - when I have already, reluctantly, accepted their T&Cs for this many times, previously.

Same if you want to use google maps - at any time - they are always asking this permission.

I do NOT have a google ACCOUNT - never in a mullion years - so why this persistence?

Does everybody else get the same?

They've had this message this for months now, how many times can you agree the same thing?

Indeed - Thank goodness that it is not just on my computer.

google are on of the most invasive operations on the Internet -

They want to know EVERYTHING about EVERYBODY - and you really do have to worry what you are actually agreeing to - when you (are (FORCED to) click 'ACCEPT' on this demand. Cry

Ranruma - are you saying that is/would be a posotive or negative?

Kindly expound on the relevance.
---------------

I run Ccleaner EVERY day - BEFORE I start - thus removing all, or any, residual Cookies - as I also have the Extension 'Self-Destructing Cookies' - which continually clears the Cookies from any site that you CLOSE down DURING the day.

Also 'BLOCK Third-Party' Cookies - so whenever I run such as Malwarebytes - It rarely finds any 'Tracking Cookies' - as it will on people's computers who do NOT 'BLOCK Third-Party' Cookies... 'prevention better than cure'.

This gooogle message is not EVERY time I start a Browsing session - But seems to come in clusters - a few days together - then nothing for a week, or more -

BUT - as a respondent on here has already highlighted - "how many times can you agree the same thing?"

dusty -

It is not, apparently, on CHROME - which is rather perverse, given that Chrome belongs to google - although I do not have google set as my HOME PAGE on Chrome - as I do on Firefox.

However, if I then go to google, it DOES appear at the Head of the page -  as 'A privacy reminder from Google' - with an Optionto 'Remind me later'...
BUT it is set INTO the page - (NOT an overlay/Pop-Up) - and not prohibiting you from continuing.

If you go to google Maps, though  - on Chrome - the set-up is the same as on ANY Browser - ASKING you etc, etc. - But, again, Smaller, and voluntary - and Not an almost full-page Overlay - as the original google HOME Page Search problem.
