      I would also like my sites to be removed from brave's network. For privacy reasons I don't wish to provide you with any information about me, past what I've consensually given you through twitter. Will you respect my privacy, while also respecting my wishes to not be removed?

      See, here's the thing. I do *not* consent for you to include my sites on your platform, but I am also unwilling to verify against your platform to be removed, because then I'm forced to accept your terms and conditions to do so. Do you understand consent yet?

      This is kind of like saying, I don't want my site to appear on Chrome, IE, or any device that browses the web where I publicly created my website/youtube account. Simply do nothing to solve this issue. At least in my eyes. Or start your own private intranet.

      Chrome, IE, or other browsers aren't collecting money based on my identity, without my consent. They aren't blocking sources of funding on my site, providing an alternative I can accept at a cost of 5% of my revenue.

      Actually Chrome is blocking some ads now (cosmetic filter). Browsers not captured by ad businesses, including Brave & Safari, block tracking by default. Firefox is adding default anti-tracking. And your "sources of funding" violate users' consent by imposing 3rd party tracking.

      I know very few ad tech partners who do, but DNT is dead. It is off by default in all browsers, and it's toothless: almost no ad-tech vendors respect it. Be real, the only defense is aggressive blocking, not "please don't loot me!" cries in the dark.

      Ultimately I think the solution is to have fully encrypted DNS + os level tracking/ad blocking (not browser).

      The latter does not work as the adversary moves into 1st party content (ads loading via a CNAME proxy or embedded via a randomized JS "nanovisor"). OS is not going to parse JS or HTML, or more important, MitM the TLS connection that terminates in userland in the browser.

      Looking at the mess the web is, I wonder if there’s any solution short of a truly anonymizes protocol serving pages with static, isolated content. Browsing mainstream news sites today in an OS default browser is thoroughly broken.

          It sucks that we've got to this point, where people judge the web and its capabilities based on its worst offenders. The web is FAR more capable than shitty news sites would have you believe, and nothing about the web forces you to use those shitty ad-driven revenue models 😕

          Do we write off the whole native ecosystem because malware is possible, and much more deadly when it does slip by the gatekeepers at the app stores? Bad actors are everywhere and we have to be judicious about what we install, and what sites we visit. Sucks, but this is our world
