According to https://cloud.google.com/docs/chrome-
enterprise/policies/?policy=BrowserSignin, « This option [2] does not
support Linux and will fallback to "Enable browser sign-in" if used. »
So this policy is not meant to work on Linux. I couldn't find any
evidence that the functionality was removed in version 77, or whether it
never worked on Linux in the first place (but I would tend to think the
latter).

Title:
Chromium Policy - Force Browser Signin - broken with 77.0.3865.90-0
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Our school depends on the policy that forces students to sign into the
browser with their Google accounts before being able to access the
internet. With the latest update, it no longer works and students can
access the internet without being forced to login.
Our current build on our student computers:
77.0.3865.90-0ubuntu0.18.04.1
If you need to read up on this policy, type in chrome://policy
Policy: BrowserSignin currently set to 2
It worked fine before updating the computers to the current version of
Chromium-browser.
Thanks for looking at this for our school!
More details:
Release: Bionic 18.04
