Google Meet displays a warning banner #442

I was able to replicate the exact issue on my end. I have not found an easy fix but will look more into it. |
Sounds good! Let's document here the different options we tried. Any ideas so far, @Jocelyn0830? |

I've tried to implement some other methods of using the Scripting method, but they are not working for our purposes. I will look around a little more to see if I can find another open-source extension that has the scripting permission and other similarities to OptMeowt. However, I think this issue is not something that we can resolve and I will add it to the known bugs and quirks shortly. |
OK, if you make that call, it would be helpful if you write more details here what the concrete problem is and what you have tried. Then, let's reference this issue in the new known bugs and quirks entry. |
Through a process of trial and error, I have found that this message is caused by our method of setting the DOM signal. Using the So while the warning message disappears when the I spent some time trying to change our method by using

When I am in a Google Meet meeting in Chrome, Meet often displays a warning banner saying "You have extensions installed that may affect the quality of your call" (with a link to https://support.google.com/meet/answer/10550593?hl=en#meet_extension). I narrowed it down to OptMeowt -- when I Disable it (using the "pause button" icon) and reload the Meet tab, the warning goes away. However, if I try to just set each domain switch to "Do Not Sell Disabled" (that is, for google.com and all 3rd Party Domains shown) and reload, the warning still appears.
I haven't actually noticed any quality difference either way, but the banner sure is intrusive, and every time I have some other Meet problem -- not infrequent, unfortunately -- I feel like I have to click "Pause" and try again (though it hasn't made a difference). OptMeowt isn't actually a Meet extension, but I assume it must be doing something to trigger Meet's warning. It would be nice to eliminate the banner and the accompanying FUD.
Interestingly, as I was just testing this right now, after playing with turning the domain switches off -- which gets me logged out by Google (another issue, or expected?) -- then on, and logging in to Google again, I didn't see the banner. However, when I deleted my cookies a.k.a. "site data" (chrome://settings/content/all) from "meet.google.com" and reloaded the Meet tab, and then started a new instant meeting (had to allow mic and camera again), the banner was back.
