>I see [ads] when I open a new, fresh tab

These two things don't seem to go together. I open a new tab >100 times a day. I'm not willing to even see recent sites there, let alone ads! My Firefox new tab page is literally blank.

I literally do not notice it, for me it's equivalent to a blank page. Maybe I've trained myself to ignore it, but that's where I am.

There's no movement or sound, and it doesn't get in the way when all I'm doing is creating a new tab to then chuck a URL into the navbar and load up the page.

Brave is “militantly anti-advertising” because it hides everyone else’s ads to make room for its own.
