Does google signin require cookie consent? - google-signin

Does Google One Tap or the Sign In With Google button powered by the latest libraries require a cookie banner before displaying or triggering?
Googles help is silent on the issue and I can find nothing on the subject.
Reddit for example display's a personalised button even if I reject cookies.

GTM consent mode Google analytics not tracking pageviews without consent

we have recently implemented cookies consent mode in Google tag manager. Pageviews in google analytics (both universal and GA 4) dropped to about 4 % of the original page views.
When I visit the web page without giving any consent some requests to google-analytics.com still appears in network tab. This tells me something is still tracked. No cookies are saved as expected.
Do you have a different experience? Should GA track pageviews anonymously even without consent or it this a correct behavior? Why would analytics script send any requests if it not appears in GA?
It is expected that you see requests to Google Analytics. However in consent mode you should not see _ga cookies being set (or existing _ga cookies being used). That's basically what consent mode is, cookie-free tracking. You should also see a parameter gcs=100 in the GA request to confirm that consent mode is indeed active.
However these requests are not surfaced in the reports (there would be no point, since without user identifier you cannot create sessions). Apparently they are being used for some sort of Machine Learning thing in the background, but I don't think this has much effect on the analytics part of GA (afaik this is more for Google Ads and GA audiences).
So yes, seeing requests in consent mode is normal (if this helps in any way with GDPR compliance etc. in entirely another matter). If you do not run campaigns and do not hope for an uplift via ML models applied to consent mode data, then you probably do not need to bother and can just disable the tags if no consent is given.
It happens because you have to set ad_storage and analytics_storage as denied by default in initialization code, like described in the documentation (in the example only ad_storage is denied, just add analytics_storage too): https://developers.google.com/tag-platform/devguides/consent#implementation_example

Is there a way to track by Google Analytics users in incognito mode inside iframe?

I tried to implement google analytics tracking by gtag.js library but faced a problem. When users tried to send data from incognito mode nothing coming. First of all, I thought GA doesn't track incognito mode because of some sort of policy restrictions but a more interesting thing happend when the same user came from Edge's incognito mode it was sent perfectly (ofc as a new person).

Is it possible to avoid Google Hangout Chat link preview's displaying authentication challenges?

Hi we use Google Hangouts Chat at work. We like seeing link previews, but if we link to an internal resource protected by gsuite autherization, the link preview is just a box telling the bot to sign in. Is there a way of avoiding this?

Google Sign-in - Detect if already logged in and prompt user

Spotted this pop-up modal in the wild while visiting the TripAdvisor website. The fact that I was currently logged in to Google, was detected, and this prompt appeared as a sign-up prompt.
Can anyone tell me more about this? I haven't seen anything like this described in Google's documentation.
It is the new One-tap sign-up and auto sign-in on websites
feature from Google Identity, which was announced at Google IO '18
But for now, beta program is closed. We should wait for new public beta program or GA release.

Facebook fanpage .ics link for upcoming events does not work

I own a personal Facebook account and a second Facebook account for a bands fanpage. I want to integrate the facebook events via .ics subscription to my wordpress calendar.
Therefor I logon to Facebook with my personal account (or with my bands account, it makes no difference), then I go to one specific event and click on the "..." button next to share and then I choose "export event"
and after that I have the link for all upcoming events.
When I subscribe to this URL e.g. in macOS Calendar, no events are delivered...
Does anybody know whats going wrong here?
