> 3. Brave happily collected those tokens on behalf of creators who didn't want to be a part of the scheme (e.g. Tom Scott). They stripped the creators of revenue from the original ads and just kept the tokens/revenue from their ads.

People can't seriously be complaining about this given that everyone here is basically upset that Chrome is making changes that impact ad blockers?
