That icon is not added by Jetpack. It’s not added by any of your plugins I think. I’d recommend that you check the list of extensions you’ve installed in your browser; one of those extensions is most likely adding the buttons to all images in your browser.

That’s funny, because it’s shown the same time when I updated Jetpack 😉
Have to look further.
Thanks anyway,
Patrick.
I wanted to send you some screenshots showing you how things looked like on my end, and then I saw the button when viewing a single post on your site! Sorry about that!
It’s actually not a Path icon, it’s a Pinterest one. It’s added by the Pinterest library that’s included on your posts and used to display the Pinterest sharing button.
There are 2 ways around this:
- Switch to a non-official button style under Settings > Sharing in your dashboard. If you don’t use the official Pinterest button, Pinterest’s library won’t be added to your posts and the hover button won’t appear.
- Keep the official buttons but force Pinterest not to display hover buttons, by adding the following snippet to a functionality plugin:
add_filter( 'jetpack_pinit_over_button', '__return_false' );
I would personally recommend the first solution, since it would also improve your site’s loading time: the less external libraries you load on your site, the faster it will be. If you switch to a non-official button style, you won’t load any external library to display the Facebook, Twitter, Google+, … buttons.
I hope this helps.
Does help, took a while to troubleshoot and find that Jetpack was the culprit. IMHO, this option show be easier to switch off/on and should be off by default.
Thanks!
