Allow Google login Third Parties and Extensions
If you navigate to brave://settings/socialBlocking
, you will see an option to enable Allow Google Login buttons on third party sites
.
When this option is enabled: It adds a third-party cookie exception for accounts.google.com so sites using Login with Google
can work correctly.
If you navigate to brave://settings/extensions
, you will see an option to enable Allow extensions to use chrome.identity api
.
When this option is enabled: It enables chrome.identity
for extensions so extensions like Google Keep and Google Calendar can retrieve an OAuth token from google to authenticate users. The OAuth token can be used to retrieve personal information like email id, profile. You can read more about chrome.identity here: https://developer.chrome.com/apps/identity
If you are not logged into Google, these options have no effect for you.
