Hello,

js.braintreegateway.com is used for payment processing. BrainTree is a PayPal owned company that provides credit-card processing forms for any commercial business. More can be read about their JavaScript SDK here: https://developers.braintreepayments.com/start/hello-client/javascript/v3.

By blocking this script, any website that uses BrainTree's SDK for credit card processing will fail, breaking online shopping and checkouts. I had to whitelist it this morning while doing some christmas shopping :)
