Unexpected differences between global Shields settings, global cookies settings, and local Shields settings #23245
Comments
@ShivanKaul @pes10k any intended changes which might've caused unexpected ones, in this area? |
local and global shields settings are by design not supposed to match. the former is is the local override for the latter. For the "global Shields settings" and "global cookies settings" not syncing, i believe this is a known bug, but reloading (or closing and reopening) brave://settings should bring thenm back in sync (with both showing the correct / true value). @stephendonner can you confirm when you have a chance? |
Thanks; just didn't want us to miss having
Sure, it's on my short list now; @Tonev @MadhaviSeelam also encouraged to weigh in of course! |

@pes10k I am same issue as @stephendonner did in regards to

I believe they should match when it concerns clean user profiles. When a user creates a user profile, the user profile is supposed to use the default global Shields settings, and without previous Shields settings changes, the local Shields settings should match the global Shields settings. |
Description
There are unexpected differences between the global Shields settings, global cookies settings, and local Shields settings. In addition to that, the global Shields settings are set to aggressive/strict when a new user profile is created.
This is more of a UI bug since default aggressive/strict global Shields settings are not applied to global cookies settings and local Shields settings (when it concerns clean user profiles).
Steps to Reproduce
Brave Nightly
.brave://settings/shields
.brave://settings/cookies
.https://brave.com
.Actual result:
Expected result:
Default global Shields settings shouldn't be set to aggressive/strict, and there shouldn't be any difference between the settings displayed on
brave://settings/shields
and local Shields settings when it comes to a clean user profile.Reproduces how often:
