What is the shields panel?

Brave Browser is VERY similar to Chrome. Brave has a little lion shaped like a shield icon at the right end of the address bar. In it are setting for ad blocking, malware detection, turning scripts on and off, etc. Security settings.

I like it a lot. It's fast and allegedly secure. It also doesn't crash with lots of tabs. Sidewise is limited but pretty good once you get used to the limitations if you really need vertical tabs. I really like the old Firefox and Vivaldi and my vertical tabs, among a few other things, but I also really like Brave. Almost a year. Also Brave Beta is secure but offers more functionality and can addon stuff from the Chrome addons.
