When we say we preserve users’ privacy, we don’t expect you to take our word for it. We want you to be able to verify that yourself.
This blog post explains how you can confirm that the proxies for Brave services can’t track users:

Nice writeup on "Privacy by Design: Published Proxy Config" (first in a series; see ur-text on "can't be evil" topic at brendaneich.com/2014/01/trust-).
brave.github.io/config-attesta shows the Cloudflare Spectrum proxy configury github-action'ed directly from source.

Replying to @PreludioGames and @brave
We don't have logs. Proxy drops IP, no logging.
We <3 cryptographic protocols for "can't be evil". A no-IP-logging example, threat model assumes no Brave/GitHub collusion: Brave News's privacy-preserving CDN. We can't see IP, Cloudflare can't see payload. Cc: @fmarier for more.

I had to double-check the books to see if this 1.69M BAT purchase was our largest ever. It isn't (largest is 1.78M from Oct, 2022), but it is the new 2nd largest, unseating a 1.68M BAT purchase made last month. Download Brave, opt-in to Rewards, and start earning $BAT 🙂

Brave purchased 1.689 million $BAT this week!
The company distributes BAT to Brave Rewards participants on a monthly basis to compensate them for viewing private ads.

We're working on a back-end fix that will automagically resolve this issue for any impacted channels, but if you want the quick-fix, manually re-adding is it 🙂

If you're not seeing a verification mark on your previously verified property (e.g. YouTube channel, Twitter account), it may be that you do not presently have an associated Uphold card with that channel. Log into creators.brave.com, and remove/re-add the channel to resolve.

Software should do what it was intended to do, and do it well. But it should also be fun, lol. Load up brave.com, click anywhere on the page, and type "hohoho" 😉

brave.com/transparency is powered by about 640 lines of JavaScript. That's it 🙂 The build script pulls-in ENV credentials for Uphold, Coinbase, and Gemini. We also call out to market APIs to get history of BAT value, and mix it all together in a final transparency.json file 👩🍳

Brave's approach of "Can't be evil" is way better than the familiar industry mantra of "Don't be evil." Brave designs its products and services with the explicit goal of precluding potential for abuse. The privacy and security of our users isn't an after-thought—it's our axiom.

If Brave is extra-crashy for you today, go to the New Tab Page and disable the crypto․com widget. This should workaround the issue. There is a known JSON-parsing bug for which we'll soon have an update shipped. Please let me know if this does or does not help.

Unlike Google + Bing, Brave Search doesn’t manipulate its algorithm to bias or down-rank results. However, all search engines have some level of intrinsic bias. Goggles gives you the power to search without these limits.

Really proud of the team for doing such a tremendously detailed and tedious job here. In order for Web3 to truly make it, it has to be considerably less intimidating than it has been to date. Brave is doing the work needed to onboard the rest of the World.

For some reason, I woke up thinking about lexers, and the process of making your own programming language.
I stumbled upon areknawo.com/the-lexer-in-j, which covers one approach in about 9 minutes of reading.
Even better, I was able to tip the author, , with $BAT 😁

The fake "front-running" scammers are quite busy on YouTube and Twitter. Nearly every video shown in the screenshot below is from the past week. This is a subset of that which exists on YouTube. It's trivial to find these; for this set I searched "Paste THIS code in Remix".

An important part of being great is preparing for the Web that soon will be, rather than focusing exclusively on the Web that was. Browsers must be forward-thinking, and blockchains appear to be the next major change coming to the Web as we know it. Brave is ready; others aren't.
