1. Use a browser other than Chrome (e.g., IE or Edge).
2. Clear browser history and data.
3. Go to Google Search, Google Maps, and Youtube.

Fanboy's Annoyance List has the following filters but they don't seem to work:

Code: Select all

! Google default search switch nag
###searchform > #gb > #gbw .gb_Mc[aria-label="promo"] > .gb_ea
! Google default homepage nag
###searchform > #gb > #gbw .gb_Vc[aria-label="promo"] > .gb_ga
Please add

Code: Select all

google.com##div[aria-label="promo"]
for the worldwide Google domain and

Code: Select all

google.com.br##div[aria-label="promo"]
for the Brazilian Google domain.

I believe the fear is that your proposed hiding rules are too broad.

They should at least include the worldwide domain. I would understand if they chose to not include other regional domains.
