Do I leave Brave Shields on or off?

[LatItude98]

After learning of this and reading up on it, first thing is thank you for your work . Second, I am going to shut off Ublock origin and make use of this in Brave. So do I continue using Brave as intended or shut the shields off in order for this to have access to everything and anything that is rude enough to come knocking?

Answered in the last section here: https://github.com/dhowe/AdNauseam/wiki/Install-AdNauseam-on-Chromium-based-browsers#optimal-configuration-for-ad-collection-on-brave

Brave blocks Ads by default and trackers, so if you want to optimise its configuration in order to have the most amount of ads collected and clicked, change the "tracking and ads blocking" to "Disabled". AdNauseam will still continue to be blocking trackers and hiding ads, but clicking and collecting the most of them as intended by the extension.
