I like the idea, but the note "So your money will never go to a site that you’ve never visited — and you’ll even get a monthly report showing which publishers your money is supporting." raises the question of who else they may be selling that report to. A detailed report of user's reading preferences and engagement would be valuable to marketers.

Hey, CEO of the company here. It's in our contract terms that we never sell your data to anyone. Aside, from the clear violations of privacy, it would completely fuck our business over night and everyone here would resign.
