    That isn't what he is claiming though. He's claiming that they do this without the users consent. If I want a page re-skinned in purple to hell with what the content provider wants…

    Why would they have to? The user has opted in. From your link: "Starting today, users of Brave’s latest release of the desktop browser for macOS, Windows, and Linux can choose to v…

    The link provided does not address your claims. Full stop.

    Yes. I want a citation for this. As far as I'm aware this is completely untrue.

    Why do you state that? Some of the largest advances in our society have come from what would be seen as toxic or hostile engagements.

    You are missing the point. He's explicitly saying those _States_ aren't _Nations_. Hence the term "Nation-State" where a state is coterminous with a nation.

    No. We got content without this in the past, and we can do this in the future. And I will note THEY admit this is bad. Stop trying to defend the indefensible.

    Brave is doing some of the best anti-Corporatist work in the community right now.

    Why in God's name if we can't trust FB with privacy of our kids photos should we trust them to handle our finances? This deserves all of the mockery that it will receive.

    This is journalism worrying over people being able to watch what they want to. Notice that the things it is worried about you watching are not things that a left-leaning journalist…

    FB has largely colluded with major media outlets in determining who would be "real" news. It has given the stamp of approval to most large media corporations. Which is nonsense, I …

    This is absolutely wrong. Fines scale with revenue because they are supposed to deter behavior. If I get fined $1000 the change in my behavior is different from that of a minimum w…

    The net loss that they are running against revenue is staggering. It is also telling that they bury that in the text and don't move it to the summary infographic. What does a profi…

    Once again the former eastern block is implementing smart reforms that are pro-market and anti-globalist.

    "How to Gleefully Use People for Personal Gain" - could have been the title. I'm often astounded at how socially unaware the millennial are.

    And our low expectations are part of the problem. We assume now that large corporations should be able to get away with behavior that would send anyone else to jail.

    If this is true then why go through the Kabuki theater of having a corporation at all. Zuckerberg is the central decision maker and there is no partial ownership in the company. Pu…
