       | This sounds like exactly the sort of feature that usually
       | triggers an online Lynch mob when it's Mozilla doing it: It's not
       | part of the core feature set people expect from a browser, and it
       | seems eminently possible to do it in a plugin?
       | 
       | I also find the self-acclaimed "Brave" browser company an odd
       | partner to work with for an organisation dedicated to the open
       | web like IA. This browser has exactly one purpose: to make money.
       | In terms of the people working on it, it's arguably more
       | commercial than Chrome, Safari, or Edge.
       | 
       | The proposition "Brave" is making is: "Don't you also feel what
       | this world needs is an intermediary between you and the people
       | creating what you like, skimming from both sides whenever money
       | is involved?"

         | territory IMO.
