The fuck you fgts know about this? Apparently Google selects people for challenges based on their search results. I'll link a few articles detailing this below.

Has anyone had any success getting into the program? I've heard of one person getting in by making sure adblock was disabled and googling itertools about 20 times. There are a few other phrases such as python lambda function list comprehension etc that have gotten people access. Anyone have any luck?

So they spy on what you search just so they could invade you with this pop-up?

This appears to be the case. I'm still interested, regardless.

You realize Google has to handle your search terms to give you results right?

I actually remember typing in "python list comprehension" a while back and this thing came up. There are 7 or so challenges they have presented for you to do. I happened to get stuck on the 4th or 5th one :-(

Hell yeah seems totally legit and not a publicity stunt.

I actually got this once. It sends you to a simulated terminal and assigns you coding tasks and you have 48 hours to complete them iirc. First one I got was a python one which I'm shit at so I didn't even bother trying, now apparently I can't login anymore.

This happened to me earlier this year and I closed it because I thought it was some advertising shit

Sure. But once they start building an actual profile on you with a unique ID, then things get progressively creepy. Anywho, if you actively use Google and their products on daily basis, then just keep on trucking. It's not like giving Google your personal info is a bad move, Mike.

I... I strip a little for some extra cash. Never take my underwear off, though! I do send my used undies by mail to pervert sniffers. Make about $700 a month just from that alone.

It is so annoying when you are trying to find the answer to a problem and your screen opens up like that.

I imagine I would never be able to solve the questions. But that is a god awful way to get peoples attention. I closed it one or two times it happened to me. I didn't know what it was until I read about it here a few months ago.

If you aren't getting it, chances are they've either wised up to a specific search term or they're just slowing down their recruitment.
Look for other upper-level python/java things.

Is it possible to see this if you adblock everything?

You're sending them your search requests!
How can they not spy on them?

Doesn't seem to work on Ubuntu 15.10.
