Ad shields detected (bug?) 🙄

hello, why does a web page now detect ad shields?
I use this page often but now I can’t claim the rewards.
Captura

set to: strict

i tried to update them all manually in brave://components
and it didn’t work

i also reinstalled brave Beta to update ad shields and it didn’t work.

@fefixet216 what website?

@Saoiray is this viefaucet.com

Loaded viefaucet.com here, seems fine?

@fanboynz OP seems to be saying that once they are logged in and try to claim rewards from the website, it blocks the Claim button with the warning to disable adblock. You can see that in the screenshot they shared, which I’ll repost below:

I don’t have an account and not sure if I want to create one to test. Do you think trying to walk them through using Element Blocker might be enough to remove the element blocking it? That’s what I was debating on instructing them to try just before you replied.


Oh, and @fefixet216 let me confirm, you’re saying it only gives you the prompt to disable adblock if you’re on Strict? And everything works well in Standard except for you were supposedly seeing blank ad spaces?

Also, are you using any extensions?

@fanboynz if only in Strict

I disable all extensions and it is still happening

I don’t use another ad blocker only of brave

Using bypass tools is forbidden and may lead to your account being banned!

Just a scare tactic, will be unlikely anyones account will be banned. They just want to scare users off adblock

@fanboynz
@Saoiray
ad shields: Strict= detectable
ad shields: standard= undetectable

before
ad shields: Strict= undetectable
now no

has a solution?

@fanboynz that’s not why

it’s because I can’t claim the rewards whith
ad shields: Strict

before I could, now I can’t

the goal is to be able to claim the rewards whith
ad shields: Strict

cause
ad shields: Strict
is detectable and was not detectable before.

solution:
ad shields: Strict
can it be made undetectable as before?

hello, now they left worse ad shields, :roll_eyes:
before you could claim the rewards at
shields: standard and now you can’t

SOLUTION
download chrome and with uBlock Origin i can now claim rewards without ads :sunglasses:

can you put this option in ad shields so I can continue using brave or I will have no choice but to uninstall brave.

Not currently, could manually add domain.com^$ghide into brave://adblock as an interium

hi @fanboynz
in shields: standard
could you please leave the ads blank as they were before in viefaucet.com please

it is the only way to be able to claim the rewards.

by blocking the blank ads you can no longer claim the rewards, it’s like an anti adblock.

the blank ads are only shown when the dark mode is activated.

in normal mode, the ads are invisible.

I think they are not ads, they are anti adblock
or something like that

hi @fanboynz, you could exclude the hidden banners from the page viefaucet.com to be able to claim the rewards please

Hidden banners function as an anti-adblock and when blocked, rewards cannot be claimed.

@fanboynz excessive blocking causes important basic functions on this page to stop working. viefaucet.com

shields: standard is working the same as shields:strict (excessive blocking).

you could reduce the excessive blocking on this page in shields: standard.

for example: in shields: standard (don’t hide anti adblock hidden banners)

Like what? I’ve logged into the account. Seems fine on the site. If there is a genuine issue sure, but I’m not seeing it.

What I do with lists is independent of Brave, we also don’t play favourites with websites.

@fanboynz

thanks for replying

are blank banners that can only be seen in dark mode (in Faucet)
could you make them come back? in shields: standard

in normal mode they are invisible (are not ads)

before creating the theme blank banners appeared in dark mode on shields: standard

I wanted you to block them in shields: standard but it was a mistake because they are necessary to claim the rewards.

with the blank banners (in dark mode) you can claim the rewards.

those banners are necessary to be able to claim the rewards, they are anti-adblock, if you block them you can’t claim them anymore.

when blocking the banners this appears (Disable your adblock)

you could leave those banners in shields: standard, they are necessary to be able to claim the rewards.
are not ads
are hidden banners anti-adblock

@fanboynz
you couldn’t do it?

@fanboynz excessive blocking causes important basic functions on this page to stop working.

such as not being able to claim rewards, which is the main function of the site.

in the previous comment I have explained it in a very easy to understand way

could you fix that please
