Unable to Access OzBargain through Brave Browser on my mobile

Hello, this morning I wanted to check Ozbargain on my Android phone's Brave Browser but it won't open. The message is Error 1020 as below:

"Error 1020

Ray ID: 6dc92f08____ (some letters)

Access Denied

What happened?

This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks."

It is specific to my Android mobile only (Boost SIM card), I can access Ozbargain through Chrome Android on mobile. I can access Ozbargain through Brave browser on PC.

Swear I am not some kind of online attacker, I am just a bargain seeker. I have tried clearing cache and such but nothing helped. Any idea on how to regain access?

    Brave has a built-in VPN on mobile devices that is probably blocked by some CDN services as they’re seen as potential threats or bots etc when thousands access from same server.

    Unless it get whitelisted here, just use another browser.

    Similar problem but different browser.

    @scotty might be able to shed more light as he did in the other topic

    • I am using Brave on Android to reply this — so likely it's not the browser that's causing the issue. So far I think only FAB is blocked.

    Only issue I have with Brave is it crashes when I try to do a search on OzB. This is fairly recent (within last month or so). Havent thought to check on other browsers, but also I don't plan on changing browsers for that 1 minor inconvenience

    • Yep same here. Didn't think it was Brave specific, but your comment confirms it.

  • Works fine for me on whatever the latest version of Brave is on Android 11 (OnePlus 6)
