GuideStar.org is blocking Brave

Here’s what I got when I navigated in Brave to guidestar.org. What does this tell me about Guidestar?

Unable To Identify Your Browser

As you were browsing https://www.guidestar.org something prevented us from identifying your browser. There are a few reasons this might happen:

  • You’ve disabled JavaScript or cookies in your web browser.
  • A third-party browser plugin, such as Ghostery or NoScript, is preventing JavaScript from running. Additional information is available …
  • A browser plugin, such as Google Chrome’s Data Saver, is routing your network traffic through a data center or other proxy. Additional information is available …

Resolving these issues should restore your access to www.guidestar.org.

It is a fingerprinting protection that is causing the issue. Click on the shield and disable fingerprinting protection

Thanks, Dgenies. Why would a not-for-profit like GuideStar try to fingerprint my browser in the first place?

Sounds pretty fishy to me.
