Your issue:

“Ad blocker Detected”

is not unusual, as AdBlock Detecting is implemented in more websites.

And, you have a work-around:

The site functions “as expected when Shields are turned off”

So, I am guessing that more precisely, the issue may be, that with Shields turned on . . . you wonder:

Is there a way to hide/prevent that alert that asks: “Please disable your ad blocker . . .” and proceed with viewing?

@m6f0h91p it works just fine for me on my iPhone and my Desktop. Originally tested with everything as you see below, but it also seems to work even if I don’t have content filtering on and just have the basic settings.

I’m inclined to think your issue is related to one of the extensions you have installed or due to cookies.

I disabled all the extensions and turned down all the filters in shields. I am still getting it. Tried Trackers & ads blocking to Aggressive and Standard both. No change. Also cleared site cookies and it still detects.

@m6f0h91p try in private window. Then try in new browser profile if private window doesn’t work

Still same.

Testing in a clean Brave beta profile; No issues here

@fanboynz I am on www.southparkstudios.com

No Extensions. I still get detection on both Normal and Agressive Trackers & ads blocking.

Which country/region? I’m getting southpark.cc.com On the west coast US.

Romania, Netherlands, India, Japan all take me to southparkstudios.com

Will have a fix in the next few hours.
