Description of the issue:
protonmail. com and others opening only in tor browser or not at all More info I can’t not log intp Protonmail on regular web page. I can log in on tor browser. I don’t know what to do. I’m having problems on other sites too only opening in Tor in stead of regular browser page. Today I went to a site and it blocked me and a message on the bottoom said cloudflare Ray ID: 8259c61c78472a1f • Your IP: 178.20.55.182 • Performance & security by Cloudflare

But that ip: listed in the message is not my ip address? What do we need to do?

**Did the issue present with [default Shields settings]
No
Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off?
No when I try to reach my email site it will not load then open up in a tor page and I am able to sign in.
Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (yes/no): No it has nothing to do with the shields

Does the site work as expected when using Chrome? I don’t use chrome I use Brave it loads only in tor an then I am able to sign in but on a regular non Tor page it won’t load at all

snowflake.torproject.org is blocked

snowflake.torproject. org refused to connect. on regular page too

ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE

Brave version (check About Brave): Brave is up to date

Version 1.60.114 Chromium: 119.0.6045.124 (Official Build) (x86_64)

I also signed up for a free trial for Brave VPN, I thought maybe that was the problem, that I was hacked or something but I never received an email from brave saying that I had signed up for the free trial VPN HELP!!!

@kennyboy it’s your settings. You are opening with Tor and it’s trying to open the onion domain, but that has issue. Go to brave://settings/privacy and turn off Automatically redirect .onion sites
