Why are you even using brave if you would like to disable its biggest feature? Just use chrome if you don't care about online ads or tracking

Hi, so first it seems you didn't understand why i would like to disable the adblocker by one click, for exemple : a web page broken by the adblocker, when you just want to support a youtuber on youtube, when you use a different adblocker, when you need to have a stable area to test some stuff. i should continue ? i would never use Chrome i'm not a simp and would never use any related google product.

@GodGoldfish this should already be possible - on Desktop, you'd go to brave://settings/shields and pick Disabled under Trackers & ads blocking. This is a global setting that will be used unless you have a specific setting for a site already

Android should have a similar experience 😄

If you have already toggled any shield settings, you may have to hit the shield on that site and then disable tracker/adblocking on that site.

@bsclifton my request was about the settings not during the utilization of the adblocker, currently as you told me i have have to put on disabled for "trackers & ad blocking, cookie blocking and fingerprints blocking. there is no way to disable the whole settings by one click.

@GodGoldfish ah ok, understood. Being able to globally turn all off in one click
