Of course not. This package is a 3rd-party package from a 3rd-party
site, no one from Debian has anything to do with this package.

You don't need to disable the repository. Use apt-mark to hold the
package until it is fixed:
 
  apt-mark hold google-chrome-stable

If you want to resume updating this package, use
  
  apt-mark unhold google-chrome-stable

Yes, Google, it is their package after all.
