I get the erroneous error when I try to use my Google account to sign into another service. 

Make sure you're not blocking any Google cookies. Tracking prevention may be interfering. To check, when you reach a page where you see the error, click on the padlock next to https:// in the address bar and look for blocked cookies.

I am getting the error too, but I know I have JS enabled, and I just used the link above and the results were positive there too.  So, it seems the problem is with Google. I get the erroneous error when I try to use my Google account to sign into another service.
