I am suddenly getting the following error in the Chrome Developer Console:

Warning!
www.digibit.io/:86 This browser feature is aimed to developers only. If you were instructed to copy here something to enable some kind of 'hidden feature', in reality it's an attempt to compromise your account
www.digibit.io/:87 For further info see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-XSS

I see that this message is coming from the class AtsystemFeatureConsolewarn class. But, am not sure what I did to cause this warning to trigger.

Any idea how I can turn this off?

Thanks,

Scott

Hello,

yes, this is a new feature in Admin Tools, like Facebook is already doing in their site. This is to prevent unaware users to run malicious code in their browser and basically "self hack" themselves.
You can disable it inside the Configuration WAF page, in the Joomla feature hardening options tab, option Warn about self XSS
