In the settings you turn on the ads in Brave Rewards and it sends notifications. You click on them and it opens a web page. You close the page. You get a little BAT at the end of the month. You have to have your wallet connected to it in the settings.

Pretty sure the BAT shilling is just that small group of autistic faggots that are whales. The TA guy that always flaunts his money in posts, that thot poster, one of the meme spammers, and probably a few from that new Telegram they made.
I guess it’s working since BAT is slowly catching on around here but let’s see your TA and thot posts after they dump on your head at 50 cents.

Huh, I accidentally did this the first day I used Brave about a year and a half ago and my numbers for time saved etc were way skewed. This was before you earned BAT for watching ads so I didn't think much of it. Not surprised the shit devs didn't fix it in the past 18 months. I went back to Chrome after 3 months of headaches.

Are OP and his friends actually trying to make me sell BAT but failing miserably, or trying to make me think that they want me to sell so that I would buy? Or maybe they want me to think that they did a poor job at trying to convince me so that I would think they actually want me to buy so that I would sell?

Crap browser anyways, seriously everyone i know doesn't use it... /g/ doesn't like it either:

>By August 2016, the company had received at least US$7 million in angel investments from venture capital firms, including Peter Thiel's Founders Fund, Propel Venture Partners, Pantera Capital, Foundation Capital, and the Digital Currency Group.
Here’s an archived version of Brave’s Wikipedia article in case that information disappears somehow See the section #Business model
https://web.archive.org/web/20200227000950/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_(web_browser)

Peter Thiel is the chairman of Palantir Technologies. Wikipedia describes Palantir Technologies like this:
https://web.archive.org/web/20200128121847/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies
>Palantir Technologies is a private American software company that specializes in big data analytics. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, it was founded by Peter Thiel, Nathan Gettings, Joe Lonsdale, Stephen Cohen, and Alex Karp.

Further along the Wikipedia article, some interesting stuff starts coming up
>The company is known for three projects in particular: Palantir Gotham, Palantir Metropolis and Palantir Foundry. Palantir Gotham is used by counter-terrorism analysts at offices in the United States Intelligence Community (USIC) and United States Department of Defense, fraud investigators at the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board, and cyber analysts at Information Warfare Monitor, while Palantir Metropolis is used by hedge funds, banks, and financial services firms.
Which is really concerning. This is also in line with how Brave whitelists Facebook and Twitter tracking scripts while advertising itself as a privacy conscious browser. Behavior of this is like a honeypot.
