Description

Brave does not respect system settings for Automatic Proxy Configuration.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Setup a local Proxy Automatic Configuration (.pac)
    I stumbled on this issue while attempting to setup hotel, which may be a useful starting point.
  2. Paste the URL to a .pac file in: Networking > Advanced... > Proxies > Automatic Proxy Configuration > URL
  3. Restart your network & brave, as recommended.
  4. Navigate to a URL you expect to be proxied. It won't work as expected.
    When using hotel, I expected hotel.localhost to be proxied.

Actual result:

I was taken to the ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED error screen.

eg. "hotel.localhost refused to connect."

Expected result:

It should have connected to the proxied URL.

hotel.localhost > localhost:2000

Reproduces how often:

Constant.
