As I said, my issue with Brave is not the sub-par implementation of DRM that's unnecessarily dependent on Play Services and explicitly tries to enforce that the feature cannot be used on an alternate OS. That isn't my issue with the project. It just suggested they do better.

I don't agree with doing this in the first place. I suggested they take a better, less easily bypassed approach if they are going to do it because I was trying to be helpful since I have experience with it. The reason I have an issue with it is not it being unnecessarily weak.

Okay logically I think I have to give up.
You think their ICO was illegal, they're a sketchy company, and that attestation is bad, but you wanted to help them build stronger attestation approach?
Being on someone's case for logical contradictions doesn't = concern troll!

Once again, I never said that attestation is bad. You keep misrepresenting what I wrote. I'm stated at least 4 times in response to you that I do not think attestation is bad. You're going far out of your way to misrepresent my statements. How is this anything but trolling?

When I write, esp on Twitter, I rely on the common sense and charity of readers: pchiusano.github.io/2014-10-11/def
The above is clearly about THEIR attestation being bad. Trying to distort my tweet into some wilful misrepresentation of your positions is very poor indeed.

It's a very willful misrepresentation of my positions after repeatedly clarifying that attestation is not bad but rather using it for DRM is bad. I'm not distorting tweets. It's what you have been repeatedly and clearly saying that is the problem. Now you're going to gaslight me?

Not a fan of this debating tactic: you attempt to find an uncharitable reading of what I was saying thanks to Twitter compression, inexact wording when essence was clear:

Bad company! Poor implementation! *But I tried to help them with a better one.*

I'm responding to trolling and dishonesty. It's not a debate. There is nothing actually being debated here especially since it was made clear that if I posted more than 280 characters to convey my thoughts it would be treated as a hostility which is insane.

You keep misrepresenting what I'm said and done. You're doing it once again here, including totally misrepresenting my comment on their issue tracker. Look at my comment:
github.com/brave/browser-
Read it. Try to understand it. Stop misrepresenting what I said.

In entirely missing my point you wrongly perceive my actions.
If you believe they ran an illegal ICO and are a scammy company, why on earth would you be helping them implement a stronger anti-fraud model for their ads when you have a strong anti-ads position.
It makes no sense.

My comment explains why using SafetyNet accomplishes little and makes no sense. It points out that there is a stronger way they could do it without locking out other OSes but that it ultimately makes no sense to add this. I was very diplomatic about that though.
And, you can see that their response is to fuck off, which is the same response I got for various other things, followed by them trash talking using Android without Play Services and claiming it's unrealistic / too hard to support it (Chromium itself explicitly supports it).

I also explained to you multiple times that after these experiences with them is when I looked closely into their business model, cryptocurrency, etc. and ended up with the conclusions that I did. I love how you pretend that I have never said things things. It's great stuff.
