@godlew

Let’s say, that you want to block JavaScripts source domain `blockjvs.com`.

Without visiting the website, in a Brave New Window, go to:

- `brave://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2Fblockjvs.com`

Scroll down to `JavaScript` and adjust the setting to **Block**.

NOTICE: In that Brave Browser Settings URL address, the following character string may be regarded as a fixed portion of the whole address characters string:

- `brave://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2F`

. . . at the end of which, you attach the domain name (`blockjvs.com`) of the website of interest.

* * *

Next, in a Brave New Window, go to `brave://settings/content/javascript`, and in the **Search** field near the upper-right corner of the page, enter: `blockjvs.com`

Scroll down the page and examine both categories:

- Not allowed to use JavaScript
- Allowed to use JavaScript

IF NOT already listed in the `Not allowed to use JavaScript` category, enter `[*.]blockjvs.com` and Add that.

IF already listed in the `Allowed to use JavaScript` category, remove that `blockjvs.com` entry.
