There are no widespread, confirmed conflicts between NordVPN and Bitdefender Total Security, including when using both the NordVPN "Threat Protection" feature and Bitdefender's Anti-Tracker extension alongside uBlock Origin.
Again, Bitdefender Anti-Tracker is not a malicious/phishing website blocker. It's only a privacy blocker with a limited capacity as an ad blocker too. NordVPN's Threat Protection is similar to Bitdefender's Traffic Light web browser extension, in case you are referring to Bitdefender's web browser extension-related products. That being said, the web protection feature of Bitdefender in the Bitdefender product is also similar to NordVPN's Threat Protection. They might block the same malicious/phishing websites, or they may not; one may block some, and the other may not. Whatever it may be, no one has any issues with either when it comes to malicious/phishing website blocking.
Make use of the website stated below to check various products against phishing/malicious URL blocking. The stated website has one of the largest collections of phishing/malicious URLs.

Hi @Rock.87
I've been using the nordvpn app on my pc with bitdefender total security for over a year now without having experienced any conflict with the bitdefender total security.
It does sometimes when bitdefender blocks a threat it shows opened by nordsec-threatprotection-service.exe.
So I guess this mean the nordvpn threat protection blocks it first and then it also gets blocked by bitdefender, this is only for some threats and when bitdefender blocks a threat that was opened by nordvpn threat protection it does not show up in the nordvpn threat protection blocked items list but only in the bitdefender blocked items list in the notifications.
