> There NO ADS with Brave Browser - like I just DO NOT SEE ADS anywhere on the Internet.

There are no ads with any browser provided that you press one button and install a browser extension that blocks them.

Brave isn't an issue regarding privacy, it's a security issue, see what I said on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42656123.

I don't think you know what I mean about ads. The pages are setup different on Chrome and Google inserts ads into everything, over the website itself, it doesn't matter what content you are viewing, you just need to be viewing anything.

There are no ads on Brave. Not on the side of the pages, not in the middle the content scroll, not behind the content scroll, not before or after - no ads.

If you use pirate streaming sites - I rarely, rarely have a popup ad on those when I do use them.

It's not just ads, it's all about the user with Brave - most sites open in reader mode, I have to actually select to see the website itself, otherwise I just get all the content I want by default and only that content.

I have 2 different compromised gmails - both of which happened during my years using Chrome, tho one was the Experian hack I'm pretty sure, Google is not secure, I don't know why anyone would ever think that.

I never have any ads whatsoever on any website that I visit. I legitimately cannot understand what you're talking about. Pages on Chrome and Brave look exactly the same.

Seems like a user issue.
