I am using the plugin for Brave

+1 was able to reproduce, this is a backend issue as well nothing we can do about it at the moment

Do we know what is causing it?

Probably the backend is only allowing browsers that pass certain headers to complete authentication. Brave/others are probably detected as unsupported browsers. My guess is if you tried to do the same with Chromium you would get the same error. Have to have a dev go in and whitelist those headers being passed (just a hunch but I think it's right)

This is happening on all browsers on Windows and Linux (and presumably macOS). nothing we an do except wait

Has Torba commented on it yet? Maybe if enough people alert him on Gab he'll give an update.

Same for me even on Dissenter Browser on Manjaro Linux.

This happens in dissenter browser in windows, as well as a standard Firefox browser installation in linux.

Working for me as of 2019-07-11 0131 PM

I confirm it is working on 2019-07-11 on Brave.

I get Security verification failed. Are you blocking cookies? even with Shields down and Site Bleacher set to whitelist. 🤔

Edit: Temporarily deactivating Privacy Possum fixed it.

… all browsers on Windows and Linux (and presumably macOS). …

CSP

Is this a variant of the same issue?
