Sort of like Patreon.

Except it would work a bit differently. Say I approve N number of sites (NY Times, WaPo, EE Times, etc.) They each get paid out of a monthly fund based on how much I visit each of them.

Wouldn't that in itself involve tracking your behaviour on the web, though, which is what commenters on this thread started off saying they disliked?
