  > I'm talking about getting paid in BAT coin for looking at ads they hijack on other peoples websites. That's not how it works though. Brave blocks ads by default, but it doesn't insert ads on any websites. It has some separate ads you can enable to get paid, but they are either on the browser start page or in system notifications.

  Ugh, ok, yeah, I have no interest in that either.

    I mean, it's optional. Don't remember what the default is, but you can opt out of their ads.

      Brave ads and the whole BAT thing are optin. You have to explicitly turn that on if you want it.

  They don't put ads on websites, they do optional system-notifications ads and ads on default new tab window. It's very unobtrusive, and you can just opt out of claiming your rewards or pass them onto the sites you browse.

  > I'm talking about getting paid in BAT coin for looking at ads they hijack on other peoples websites. You know that's not true, right? Sometimes it worries me that we form opinions from the opinions that aren't even ours. It's opt-in by the way, not opt-out. This isn't Chrome.

    What specifically isn't true about that? When I used Brave the ads appeared as push notifications over the website you are currently viewing, and you were rewarded BAT for tolerating it. AFAIK the ad notifications aren't at all related to the website you are currently viewing, and the website isn't compensated.

      you get ads even if you just stay on the brave homepage
