I tried using the 'Guest mode' and it still happens. This time testes on Mac and using Command click, as I do not have mouse attached, but the effect is the same: https://screencast.googleplex.com/cast/NTk2OTcxNzYxNzQ5MTk2OHxjNGU1N2Q1ZC1iNg

I've reproduced the blocked popup with one of the images: it just tried to open the link I've middleclicked (apparently, using "window.open()"), hence I think the site tracks link clicks for analytics but doesn't account for the spec changes in the recent Chrome: non-primary buttons are no longer reported in the "click" DOM event.
