How can I disable "Local Network" permission pop-ups for Chrome on macOS 15.1?

On both my work Macbook pro and my personal Macbook air (both relatively new devices running on Sequoia), I have been absolutely PLAGUED with permissions pop-ups requesting access for the same permissions over and over, and it's very annoying. This has happened with multiple types of permissions, but the most egregious by far has been Chrome triggering a pop-up asking whether I want to "Allow 'Google Chrome' to find devices on local networks? This will allow you to select from available devices and display content on them." Now, I never use screen casting, nor any other features that would make this permission necessary for me to allow, so I hit "Don't allow," knowing that I could always go into my settings under "Privacy & Security" and go to "Local Network" to re-enable that permission if I ever wanted to.

My PROBLEM is that this decision is not respected, and this same pop up has reared its ugly head at least 20, maybe 30 times on each laptop, every time Chrome updates, my mac reboots, or I simply look at it funny. It simply won't stop asking for Local Network permission, and when I finally gave up and tried hitting "Allow" instead, just hoping it would stop, it STILL didn't remember that permission, and I am STILL getting this pop up all the time needlessly. When I check the aforementioned spot in the settings, I see multiple different instances of Chrome represented there, all with their permissions unchecked, leading me to wonder if each different version/update of Chrome is being treated as a different program needing its own permissions to be allowed. Obviously that shouldn't be the case, thus reporting this issue here. Maybe it's a Chrome issue, maybe it's a Mac issue-- I have no way of knowing, but I beg for a solution so my workflow stops being interrupted by pop-ups for the same permission for the same program over and over. :(

I'd love some way in that settings panel to simply auto-deny all programs that request this permission, or disable this feature entirely... Heck, I'd be happy with some advanced terminal command to do such a thing, rather than being stuck with "user friendly" pop-ups that I can't disable or automate with any degree of control. Thanks for listening.
