Received an automated message from Google:

Screenshot_2019-12-11 Chrome Web Store Removal notification for IPFS Companion

It looks like they rejected v2.9.0.872 but 2.9.0.860 is still available at
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ipfs-companion-beta-f5f76/hjoieblefckbooibpepigmacodalfndh
This does not seem to be related to Manifest V3 and #808, just some new automated checks.

Asked for human-readable clarification. Waiting.

Received a canned, Kafkaesque response:

Dear Developer,

Your item, "IPFS Companion (Beta @ f5f7660)," with ID: hjoieblefckbooibpepigmacodalfndh, did not comply with our Developer Program Policies and was removed from the Google Chrome Web store.

Your item did not comply with the following section of our policy:

We may remove your item if it has a blank or insufficient description in the description field, or missing icons or screenshots, and appears to be suspicious.

If you'd like to re-submit your item, please make the appropriate changes to the item so that it complies with our policies, then re-publish it in your developer dashboard. Please reply to this email for issues regarding this item removal.

*Please keep in mind that your re-submitted item will not be immediately published live in the store. All re-submitted items undergo a strict compliance review and will be re-published if the item passes review.

Important Note

Repeated or egregious violations in the store may result in your developer account being banned from the store. This may also result in the suspension of related Google services associated with your Google account.

All re-submitted items will continue to be subject to Chrome Web Store policies and terms of service.

Thank you for your cooperation,

Google Chrome Web Store team

I believe the best course of action is to publish new Beta and go over every field in publishing form, ensure we don't leave anything empty + update screenshots to include real UI.

We also need to do the same for Stable channel, to minimize risk of rejection there.
