Now pointlessly enhanced with AI
I know this day is coming for a while and it’s here. Google Chrome disables uBlock Origin extension, and many other ad content blockers.
I haven’t been using Google Chrome for browsing the web for the last 10 years. I use it primarily for Chrome Remote Desktop.
Users are running out of good web browsers.
The previously reported bug that caused a login loop for Google-hosted G-Suite accounts has been fixed, presumably on the server side.
The bug was first introduced in macOS 10.14.4 beta. Originally the bug affects any Google accounts with Two-Factor-Authentication (2FA) turned on; Gmail and G-Suite altogether. When macOS 10.14.4 was released, only G-Suite accounts with 2FA were affected. iOS 12.2 was also affected by this bug.
We checked on Saturday morning, March 30, 2019, and found out that the issue was fixed. Assuming that it was fixed on the server side by Google.
A lot of businesses and educational institutions are using G-Suite.
UPDATED:
Add the accidentally deleted “Two-Factor Authentication” bit.
With the release of macOS Mojave 10.14.4, another bug that was originally introduced in 10.14.4 beta. This bug also presents in macOS 10.4.5 beta, iOS 12.2 and iOS 12.3 beta.
Google-hosted G Suite account with Two-Factor Authentication enabled will not be able to log in properly.
When adding a G Suite account you will get a message:
Enter the password for the account “(null)”.
Google requires completing authentication in Safari.
In macOS 10.14.4, to authenticate Google Accounts, Safari opens in Private Browsing Mode.
This bug had been reported multiple times by Apple Developers and Beta testers since the release of macOS 10.14.4 beta 1.
On Wednesday, March 25, 2015, several DNS servers were having trouble resolving domain names. I first noticed this when visiting Daring Fireball. I was not able to load the site on my iPhone, which is on T-Mobile network. By 4:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time, I was still unable to access Daring Fireball on my iPhone. I took the screenshot and tweeted:
If I had to guess, it might be DNS issue with T-Mobile. @gruber
Two hours later I noticed that I still couldn’t access Daring Fireball. This time I was using the office network; connected through AT&T DSL. We could only get AT&T in this particular area. Then I tweeted to John Gruber:
It seems @daringfireball is still down. @gruber
Within 3 minutes, Gruber replied:
@iVeryAm No, my site is up. There are internet-wide routing problems, alas: http://www.internethealthreport.com
When I arrived at a colleague’s residence, I was able to to load Daring Fireball site through Verizon FiOS.
Later on, Ben Drago replied:
@gruber@iVeryAm It looks like Google’s DNS servers are not resolving http://daringfireball.net . Working OK w/ @OpenDNSpic.twitter.com/O9SSCGuFb3
I tested a few DNS servers and some of them were having the same issues with Google DNS.
At the time of this post, the issue persists on some DNS servers.
Sometimes on Monday, November 23, 2014, my Nexus 4 informed me that Android 5.0 Lollipop is ready for download.
I’m glad that my Nexus 4 did not suffer the similar fate with my Nexus 7; it is actually usable.
Android 5.0 Lollipop Factory Image for Nexus 4 (occam) is available from Google.
From Chromium Project:
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open Chrome.
2. Attempt to interact with the browser in any way.What is the expected behavior?
Browser should work.What went wrong?
The browser crashes completely on every start attempt.
After further investigation, it seems the crash happens when built-in Trackpad or Magic Trackpad is used to interact with Google Chrome on any Macs running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 build 14C68k.

ie deprecated in 10.10 Yosemite and looks like removed in 10.10.2

We’ll see if this issue would be resolved in the next build of OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 seed.
