To be fair, I have seen it spontaneously, but I’m guessing you mean would have come in larger numbers. It’s not always just been about adblock related stuff, but components in general.
Description of the issue:
After the latest update to Brave (v1.64.109 on March 20, 2024) The brave browser no longer bocks any ads, trackers etc. even with shields up. Looking at brave://components, several of them show “update error”.
How can this issue be reproduced?
Right away upon opening brave on desktop.
Expected result:
To be fixed
Brave Version( check About Brave):
v1.64.109
Netflix - Amazon show DRM error, won’t load content.
Turning DRM off and on does not fix the problem.

Hi, I’ve been having this same issue and tried a fresh install of Brave. My brave://components all update without issue except that the “Brave Ad Block updated” won’t update:
Brave Ad Block Resources Library - Version: 0.0.0.0
Status - Update error
It even has this showing in a fresh install of the browser when I navigate to this page.
Anyone have any solutions?
Check components page, Status for several entries is ‘update error’.
Push button, it tries to download, but the status still ends a ‘update error’.
This is just a sample there are several:

Description of the issue: When trying to update Brave components, several of them fail to update and return with status of “Update Error”
How can this issue be reproduced?
Click on Check for Update
Status returns with “Update Error”
Clicking or refreshing or relaunching does not fix.
Expected result: Return of Status - Update Complete or Up-to-date
Brave Version( check About Brave): Version 1.59.124 Chromium: 118.0.5993.117 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Additional Information:
I typically put my laptop into hibernate mode every day after I’m done using it. One issue I’ve encountered is that the Brave browser’s components don’t update automatically, and they display an update error message until I either update them manually or relaunch Brave. When I hibernate my laptop, the new tab page in Brave remains open, and the component errors tend to surface within 1-2 days. I’m unsure whether this is intended behavior for the browser to require relaunching every few days or i…
I think we found the culprit.
Brave Ad Block Updater - Version: 0.0.0.0
Status - Update error
Check for update
That was the output of the component so, I guess I have to repair or reinstall brave or else it could be a server error.
I stopped receiving ads, so I went to brave://components to check if everything was ok and was surprised to see that there was an error in Brave Ads Resources (AR) - Versión: 0.0.0.0
Deje de recibir anuncios, asi que fui a brave://components para revisar si todo estaba bien y me lleve la sorpresa de ver que habia un error en Brave Ads Resources (AR) - Versión: 0.0.0.0

Description of the issue:
Accidentally deleted my Default profile so I re-installed Brave browser. However, once I had installed the newest version of Brave (1.17.73), several issues arose. The Brave Shields no longer worked for adds. It appeared ok and was orange and looked as normal on pages, but it never blocked any adds at all.
The script blocking feature on it however worked, but the adds and tracking didn’t block anything even on YouTube etc even when set to aggressive. On my new tab pa…

Some are slightly different “flavors” but seems to all be related, at least in my mind. Majority have issue where it shows like Version 0.0.0.0 or whatever. Definitely not large numbers of people compared to how many have installed the app,. but I think a decent amount of people just don’t know to look there and assume Shields is just broken. So they move on to other browsers or other extensions.
