Brave, a new web browser that automatically blocks all ads and trackers
- Namrog84 10y agoJust curious how is it different than an ad blocker in other browsers. At least for the block ad part?
- UweSchmidt 10y agoTheir mission statement includes "...while growing ad revenue share for content creators". Also, currently you need mix and match a bunch of plugins, while monitoring their reputation (see AdBlock).

- rdslw 10y agoYet another PayUsToLetThemSeeYourAds approach. With obligatory ButWeWillDoMicroPayments sauce. P.S. Its not new neither. Its simply build on chromium.
- NexusGS 10y agoSo, it's a ad-blocker that replaces ads with their own ads... Nope, sorry, not interested... "The new Brave browser blocks the ads and trackers that slow you down, spend your bandwidth, and invade your privacy. Then we put clean ads back, to fund website owners and Brave users alike. Users can spend their funds to go ad-free on their favorite sites."
