I don't necessarily want ads blocked, especially on sites that I regularly enjoy that I don't pay for with money.

I do want to block the underlying tracking/fingerprinting/profiling etc.

This is why I'm very much against Brave - I don't really see why they have the right to edit or censor other people's revenue models and replace them with their own. That seems.. unethical.

It is the users who are censoring the pages by choosing to use an ad blocking browser. I don't think the fact that Brave is offering an alternative revenue stream taints their browser's ad blocking capabilities. It is a feature that is available on almost all other browsers, natively or through a plugin.

They don’t. You, the end user, do. They’re selling you a tool to do that.

They provide an entire replacement economy from which they profit 5% of transactions, I don't see them as being innocent bystanders here.

"Innocent" implies there is an injustice / crime of some sort taking place, but there is not in this case.

[detritus]

I didn't mean to imply 'crime' but I'll accept 'injustice' in the context of the post I was responding to.

[Touche]

What's the injustice?
