Chrome 120 JSONDecodeError

[cyberfuhrer]

After updating Chrome to version 120, an empty JSON is received:

File "/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pychrome/tab.py", line 122, in _recv_loop
message = json.loads(message_json)
raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

It appears that the error is triggered when calling tab.stop()

I have the same error when calling tab.stop() and/or browser.close_tab(tab) running Chromium 120.0.6099.199:

Exception in thread Thread-1:

I'm having the same issue on Chrome 124.0.6367.93, MacOS.

When calling the following:

browser.close_tab(tab)

I get the same error:
