Pop up message

Whenever I am at work using my employer's WiFi, I periodically receive the following notification:

"The computer  'XX.XXX.XX.XXX' is attempting to access Control Center on your computer. Do you want to allow this connection?"

I then have the option to allow or block. Of course I click block because I do not know the computer that is trying to access my control center or why.

The screen_ai service in chromium is added for accessibility functions like in time screen reader and AI based video captions.
