Getting Rid of Annoying Nag Suggesting Other Site

1

Hi! I have two websites with similar name. When I go to the second one, Brave keeps suggesting I go to the first one “Did you mean XXXXX… attackers sometimes mimic” then I’m faced with 3 choices:
a) Click X and close (and it comes back every time, very annoying)
b) Click “Yes, continue” and it brings to site #1, where I’m not trying to go
c) Click “Learn More” and just goes to Brave info page about this “great” feature to protect (excuse my sarcasm please :joy: it’s non stop and I normally don’t let annoying things bother me, but it’s been going for days lol :joy: )

How to disable this?? :rofl:

@junkofdavid2 it’s impossible to answer as you honestly did not provide any information. For example:

  • Which OS?

  • Which version of Brave?

  • What websites?

  • Any screenshots of this happening?

Hello! Thanks for your reply. Not sure if I’d want to say the name of site publicly (but I can PM you if you wish and if I can), but for the rest of the info:

OS: Windows 11
Brave version: 1.66.118
Screenshot: See here https://snipboard.io/fsyXMg.jpg (sorry I don’t know how to attach a screenshot to this forum reply).

*Non-techie here.

Thanks!!!

Yeah this is a Chromium feature, not specific to Brave.

brave://settings/content/popups change to Sites can send pop-ups and use redirects. Or add/remove sites there
