I recently received the following email from Chrome Web Store Developer Support:
In addition to the existing extension-level protection, our expanded enforcement will also use machine learning to evaluate each inline installation request for signals of deceptive, confusing, or malicious ads or webpages. When we find those signals, we'll selectively disable that one inline installation request and redirect the user to the extension's page on the Chrome Web Store. This selective enforcement will not impact inline installation of that extension from other, non-deceptive sources. Developers will not be notified of this enforcement, as it happens on an as-needed basis.
Are you serving any ads on your site or doing anything else that might be perceived as a grey area by ML?
If you're being blatantly deceptive, it would appear that you've been found out. If not, and you're genuinely confused, a possible first step would be to scrape your site of any ads or injected content altogether to see if you're able to regain Google's trust.
