I disabled this 'feature' a while ago when I saw it on Twitter and forgot about it. However, recently I noticed that Twitter has been able to bypass the setting and was showing me my email under the Google option in the login provider list. I couldn't find any way to disable it.

It uses an iframe scoped to Google and I'm pretty sure that Twitter can't access my Google account data unless I select the login option but still, feels really creepy.
