What do you think of Brave and it's BAT?
Started using it 2 or 3 weeks ago, looks like it's collecting some crypto for me.- looked in to it yesterday but even the name gives me the creeps 'Basic Attention Token' yipes. not for me.kingsteven

- imho, fuck Brave. Strips ad revenue from legit sources and forces site owners to sign up to its scheme to get 'their cash', else it keeps it. Shitty moves.Nairn
- I like the idea that attention is 'value' and not data. not sure if brave will solve this problem, but it's maybe one of the first accessible experiments at it.uan
- i'm staying away from anything that may be a future metric for my efficiency in the gulagkingsteven
- kingsteven. You see, the problem is you already are a metric, but you don't see any benefits from it. Brave puts you in control of it, and not the site owners.ESKEMA

And if QBN would accept BAT, maybe I could donate some every month to it.ESKEMA - It creates a direct economy withouth needing advertisers collecting dataESKEMA

- How does a site owner benefit from $1 worth of BAT a month versus however much ad revenue they'd get from the ads Brave steals from them?Nairn
- I can't understand how people don't get how unethical Brave is, fundamentally.Nairn
- because I don't want to be tracked in every link I open, just because I happen to click on some random link. I can disable shields on sites I think warrant itESKEMA
- the 1$ is in my client. It accumated in 2-3 weeks .0001 steps. it‘s a share brave gives me from the $ the advertisers paid for it.uan
- I've been using Brave for at least a year. The earning became annoying at some point, so I opt out. Bottom line for me, it's a great alternative to Chromezaq
- I don't even see any ads, but I keep receiving rewards. Sometimes a notification but very rare.ESKEMA
- if qbn would accept BAT and every upvote would give poster some of it, could lead to more quality content. PhanLo would be BAT rich!uan
- i'm paranoid but i think once you formalise a concept as vague as BAT be prepared for the concept of 'attention debt'kingsteven
- how would such thing be enforced? You'd need to have a lot more problems to deal with before you reach that point no?ESKEMA
