Verify you are human by completing the action below. [ ] Verify you are human [Cloudflare] [website] needs to review the security of your connection before proceeding.
Checking the box turns it into a dancing circle with, Verifying… but then returns to the same [ ] Verify you are human [Cloudflare] message after a few seconds.
I have seen where other people have had the same issue but nobody at Brave has acknowledged it or offered any solutions. It occurs with and without extensions enabled, in a private window or a regular window. It occurs both with and without a functioning VPN. The same verification process works fine in Firefox and in Chrome, so it’s definitely a Brave issue.

Trackers & Ads treatment: Aggressive (at first), and then incrementally relaxing that setting
Fingerprinting (aka footprinting) blocking: Strict (at first), and then incrementally relaxing that setting
I almost NEVER use:
All of Brave Shields UP
All of Brave Shields DOWN
In other words, I “inch my way along” . . . trying to find what satisfies the website-and-Cloudflare communal whatever (it varies, depending upon the website and its association with Cloudflare).
Sometimes, the website serves the visitor’s Internet browser; but sometimes, a Cloudflare webserver does the serving.
Anyway, I recommend the slow approach.

How do I configure global and site-specific Shields settings?
This also happened in my Brave browser recently. In my case, Cloudflare human check is working in Private Window mode, but not in the normal browser.
I turned off extensions one-by-one to get the root cause, it turned out disabling “No Service Worker” this extension would restore Cloudflare’s human check.
It seems Cloudfalre implementing new human check mechanism recently, which might include validation of service worker. There may be other checks in the recent rolling out, so the root cause in my case might not same as yours. But if you can browse in Private Window mode, then you can also use the same way to figure out which extension blocks Cloudflare’s human check.
