Description of the issue:
Some websites treat Brave differently when logging on to certain websites. The websites that I’ve encountered this problem so far are YouTube and Lidl.
When logging on to YouTube, sometimes I get the message:
Couldn’t sign you in
This browser or app may not be secure. Learn more
Try using a different browser. If you’re already using a supported browser, you can try again to sign in.
It would take at least 1 more try logging in and at most 3 attempts to the YouTube account before I can log on as normal.
For Lidl, once I log on to my account, it asks me to select certain images to check to see that I’m not a bot.
Exact URL of the website in question:
Did the issue present with default Shields settings? (yes/no)
Yes.
Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off?
No.
Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (yes/no):
Not sure.
Does the site work as expected when using Chrome?
Yes.
Brave version (check About Brave
):
Brave 1.80.113 (Official Build) (64-bit)
I also had this happen to me with the Petco website. When I was trying to log on to my account, it would tell me that my access was blocked, but now it works. However, when opening a tab on a private window, it produced the same problem and using Brave Beta also wouldn’t work. It’s inconsistent but I felt was noteworthy to share.
