How to resolve the "Your browser did something unexpected" error when logging into GitHub on Chrome

Question

I am having an issue with GitHub where when I try to submit certain things on the website it will shoot out the following error: "Your browser did something unexpected. Please contact us if the problem persists." I logged out of GitHub and now when I try and login, I am getting the error and cannot get back in.

Note this error is only occurring on my Chrome application and not on Microsoft Edge. I did clear the cache, cookies, data etc and restarted Chrome and the issue remains.

Anyone know of a good solution for this error or what is causing it in the first place?

Thanks VonC for your feedback! Turns out it was one extension in particular. Having the VPN application, Private Internet Access enabled, seems to cause issues with GitHub for some reason. Not sure why.
