Works fine for me with Brave 0.13.0 on macOS 10.12.3 with the default shield settings. Screenshot:

Might be something in master that breaks it

Duping to #6883 ?

I figured out where the issue is coming from. I had enabled JPN: ABP Japanese filters (日本用フィルタ)and disabling those fixes things.

@lukemulks the brekage of GA platform is also caused when that filter is enabled. Here's the list: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/k2jp/abp-japanese-filters/master/abpjf.txt

By enabling the list and visiting https://analytics.google.com, nothing is displayed because these resources are blocked.

https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js and https://ssl.google-analytics.com/u/ga.js are obviously safe to be blocked, but the other resources seem to me to be required to display the platform.

Yet I am not sure if this was caused by false rules as ssl.gstatic.com is not mentioned in that list.

Also please have a look at this: #6883. It is known that custom filters block the resouces more than as they are expected.

@lukemulks Also please feel free to rename this issue if necessary and add it to the project.

thanks @luixxiul will investigate

ssl.gstatic.com is used for advertising, but is also used for non-advertising. In the US, the filters don't block ssl.gstatic.com, but I will check and see if the other blocklist does.

will also look into #6883
