I think the really important thing to know about this browser is that, although it has no ads, currently, it will eventually adopt its own ad model and will replace ads on pages with its own ads. Though I'm sure the browser itself works well, after reading about it and the proposed business model, I feel rather dubious about the whole thing. I too dislike ads, am wary of "targeted" advertising, etc, but surprisingly found myself even questioning the ethics involved in replacing ads that, in some cases, have been specifically designed for/paid to accompany certain websites, with generic "Brave" advertisements.
