It was AdBlock that stopped it.

@jsmshay Do you mind trying the following, the error you are encountering could be due to Ad Blocker, security plugin or chrome extension.

  1. Reset Site Kit (Site Kit > Settings > Admin Settings > Reset Site Kit)
  2. If you are using iThemes security can you uncheck this option from the general settings
  3. Temporarily deactivate your other active WordPress plugins
  4. Install Site Kit in a new incognito window

Please let me know if it works after you perform the above steps.

uBlock Origin was the culprit in my case, disabling solved. Thanks!
