#YouTubeRewind link on Google newtab page - why not blocked by adblockers?

When opening the Google search page in Google Chrome I now see a link to: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.youtube.com/rewind&source=hpp&id=1900129XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX etc. TsT7jqTtHYbASI-sA

How did this land on the newtab page. Haven’t seen it before?

I have uBlock0 and have the link now blocked with Blocksite!

Anyone?

A run with AdwCleaner, which by the way detected 0 issues, stopped it…
(probably through a reboot and clearing tracing keys and resetting winsock through the restart).

Anyway it has left the laptop.
