Website Specifically Targeting Brave Browser and Blocking Access (cimanow.cc)

[Abdulrahman1]

Description of the issue:
The website cimanow.cc blocks access to content when using the Brave Browser. The message displayed on the site is in a red box and reads: “Please use another browser to be able to watch and download for free.” This issue prevents access to content, and switching to a different browser like Chrome resolves the problem.

How can this issue be reproduced?

1. Open the Brave browser.
2. Visit the URL: https://cimanow.cc/فيلم-venom-the-last-dance-2024-مترجم/watching/
3. Observe the message blocking access to the content, requesting the use of another browser.

Expected result: The website should allow access to the content without blocking Brave users, or at least provide a workaround within the browser.

Brave Version (check About Brave):
Version 1.73.101

Additional Information:
The issue occurs even with Brave Shields turned off, and different cookie settings adjusted. The site specifically appears to target Brave users, as the issue does not occur when using other browsers like Chrome.

Comparison between Brave and Chrome:

• Brave Browser:
  When opening the URL in Brave, the site shows the message in a red box that blocks access to the content. The message says: "Please use another browser to be able to watch and download for free.

• Chrome Browser:
  When opening the same URL in Chrome, there is no message blocking access, and the content is accessible as expected.

Yeah looks like I can reproduce. It appears to work in Chrome even with uBlock extension enabled. I’ve reported this to our web compat. folks for review.
