With the latest Brave update (1.63.162) I'm experiencing issues displaying the fonts on the site keeping Brave's Shield active.
For many elements on the navbar, panel-headers and others the fonts are replaced with Times New Roman font, while other elements are displayed with the Arial font making the whole thing look quite ugly.
The problem is caused by Brave's Shield, in fact by disabling it I can display all the fonts on the site correctly. The problem is explained on a post I randomly found on Brave's community forum:

The post mentions cosmetic filters that are applied by Shiels and you can find a link to the uBlock GitHub project page
Procedural cosmetic filters
By the way, I should mention that I have uBlock active as well but with that extension enabled I still don't encounter the same problem.

Currently it seems that the issue only occurs under GNU\Linux. I checked on Windows with the same Brave version and despite having the Shield active I have no problem viewing fonts. The same is also true for the mobile version.
