I have been seeing this for months on various Einstein site pages, including forum pages, various accounts pages, and so on. The rate of occurrence seems to vary somewhat systematically as there are days when it seems to happen on more than one out of 10 page loads, and there are weeks when it doesn't seem to happen at all in many hundreds of page loads.
