Websocket upgrade unsuccessful due to shield settings


Description of the issue:
When trying to use https://che.openshift.io/, which is a web based code editor, I cannot log in unless I globally allow third party cookies. Turning just the shield off for the website doesn’t work.

I have tried to create a whitelist entry in brave://adblock, but literally got nowhere with that.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Create a free RedHat Developer account
  2. Turn off shield
  3. Create a workspace in the Che dashboard
  4. Try to switch to the workspace

Expected result:
workspace loads and code editor is seen

Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.0.1 Chromium: 78.0.3904.108 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Additional Information:
The failing call is:

Which returns a 302 without third party cookies allowed, and a 101 with them allowed.
