I wonder what kind of "upgrade" is this ? Now almost all the time when Safari is opened, there is this: the basic touchbar controls (volume, brightness etc.) not present, just Safari icon, "login" or "cancel. When touching the "cancel", you have to do it at least 3 times before something happens. What kind of updated nonsense is it ??
Got a tip for us?

If you tilt your Mac to the right, you should be able to see all the options. 
Yes - and next time the same thing comes again ... I wonder why suddenly this kind of Safari login "setup" starts coming now again and again. Why when on Safari I have to "log in" again and again on touchbar to get back the basic controls ?If you tilt your Mac to the right, you should be able to see all the options.

Or alternatively just log into YouTube or whatever site you're on. But yeah I always turn TouchID for PW autofill off haha. I've already authenticated into the computer - stop hassling me!
Touch ID is activated, all works normally. This is just a kind of new nonsense that was not happening before ... You browse Safari for some time, all ok, touchbar showing what it should and suddenly out of nothing at one moment all disappears and you get Safari logo, Touch ID log in and Cancel. I wonder WTF ?
It's because you are on a webpage with a login or password form that you previously saved, and Safari is trying to authenticate to autofill the information.
You can figure out what websites are causing the behavior and check what autofill information is stored for them in Safari preferences.

Well, I checked and it remained there on any website, even totally general without any possible login. And at websites with login - I am mostly logged in there anyway, so it does not make any sense either ...
