The "policy notifier" popup appears to have already existed as an internal tool. Google seemed unhappy with this specific message flowing through it.

Yes that tool was preexisting. But no, all other messages served by that tool are throttled, meaning if you visit an offending site several times, you get the pop up once. She overrode the throttle for her particular message. That turned her message from a gentle reminder to a nanny nag. It's a clear abuse.

That's helpful, and not mentioned in the various articles I've read.
