Users have a right to block intrusive banner ads on their user agent if they so choose.

Users also have a right to enable a separate rewards text system notification ads program if they so choose.

If content providers want to paywall adblockers they can choose to do so.

You're not having an honest discussion here, trying to spin this as if Brave gives the user more choice. What we're talking about Braves built in ad blocker and ad scheme. Users like myself in this thread have a right to call out what we feel is not an honest system.

That's like your opinion man. You are totally free to feel that way, but I don't agree.
