I think my IP address might've been blocked by Brave because I used a VPN

hello. i think Brave might’ve accidentally blocked my IP address from seeing ads now because I used a VPN for, like, two seconds. a while ago I was receiving ads and seeing them normally, but now I don’t see a single ad, not even the ones displayed on the new tab page. Could this be true? That Brave might’ve blocked me? I hope someone can help me with this… I didn’t mean to use it to get ads from other countries and stuff, I swear. I just wanted to test Nord VPN for a trial to see if I can access blocked content from other regions. thank you.

No, brave is ok with vpn it’s just they are serving small amount of ads now, from 20’s down to 5 ads per day, other experience 2ads some are worst than that seeing no ads anymore.

I use vpn sometimes too but I never had such issue. Like the user above said its brave browser based issue and brave team is working on it.

See: (v1.18.70 Changes) Brave ads received reduce drastically to 5 ads per day
