A long list of what Shields can do

By default, Brave has the strongest privacy protections of any popular browser. And Shields are a core part of that protection. Here’s a long list of what they can do: Block third-party ads & trackers

  • Third-party ad & tracker blocking, on every page you visit. Available in Standard and Aggressive mode.
  • Resource replacement: Brave will block-and-replace problematic resource scripts with a stripped-down, more private version that still allows the page to function. Learn more about Brave’s “SugarCoat” work with UC San Diego.
  • CNAME uncloaking: Some third-party trackers use cloaking tactics to hide where code really comes from, and circumvent ad blockers. Brave can see through this evasion, and stop it from happening.

Anyway, the best browser for privacy is always Firefox, you need to customize the settings and add add-ons for this purpose, then it’s even more powerful than Brave.
