> The new Brave browser automatically blocks ads and trackers Well I suppose I'll have to check that one out. EDIT: Installed it, went to facebook, saw ads. Tried a google search, saw ads. Went to reddit, saw ads. Not sure what it's actually blocking. Blisk looks interesting as well. (EDIT: Chromium re-wrap with device previews, bug reporting, and screen recording) I tried and liked Vivaldi, but it's just repackaged chromium with a few extra features isn't it?

We don't block first party ads by default. We may if they become as hazardous and just plain bad as third party. We may add options for first party blocking. Most ad blockers do not block tracking-free 1st party ads, last I checked.
