HuffPost website stuck in infinite reload when using Shields

Description

The HuffPost website sends the user in an infinite loop of reloads when Shields is enabled.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Ensure that Brave Shields is enabled.
2. Accept the consent form.
3. Go to HuffPost.com or some article on the website.

The user is sent to the front page even when an article is visited. The page then keeps refreshing itself every second or so.

The page is loaded eventually.

@FWDekker can confirm, connecting the VPN to the Netherlands the issue occurs, connecting from my regular IP (Belgium) the issue also occurs connecting the VPN to the US the issue is gone (so is the GDPR consent prompt). All Tested using fresh incognito windows.

The issue no longer occurs for me either! 👍
