      Hi, I created JavaScript. You should block JS used for 3rd party trackers, fingerprinting, ads. You should definitely block the new cryptocurrency mining scripts. @Brave is one solution; we aim for always-on, tested ease of use. Other solutions exist, require more work of users.

      Do you block Google analytics? Why shouldn't a website owner be able to see who's visiting their website?

      You can see who is visiting your website. Just check your web server logs.

      Have you actually used Google Analytics? It's more than just a log file... and that's before we start talking about web caches, CDNs, etc. etc.

      Cry me a river. Do you realize Google Analytics works by tracking users everywhere they go because of all the sites that use them?

      Banning 3rd party cookies is too broad because you prevent people using genuinely helpful technology. Your point about building a profile on you is a different issue. Do you have a problem with personalised advertising?

      Amazon can personalize their advertising on http://Amazon.com  when I’m logged in. But there is something very wrong when a user visits a random site and sees Google’s creepy spyware following them around. Wrong, wrong, wrong.

      By "Google's creepy spyware", I assume you mean Amazon showing you an advertisement based on your amazon browsing behaviour on a 3rd party website? That website makes money from showing you the advert, should that website make you pay a subscription instead?

      My browser should not allow that third-party website to collude with Amazon to unmask my identity and my purchase history. How and whether all of these sites make money is their problem. It’s great to see Brave solve their problem without selling me out to the ad monopolies!

          That third party website isn't colluding with Amazon! They selling ad space on their website (which you're using) to Google, who are using an anonymous identifier which Amazon have requested to advertise to...

          Amazon sells ad space on its marketplace to Google? Not for many years, AFAIK. We used to lol at the leakage to G from A back 12 years ago or more. Please give details, I'm interested. ("anonyous identifier" is lulz.)
