They had a bug in it where if you typed a valid URL (eg. binance.us) it'd still give the sponsored link as an autocomplete which it shouldn't have. That bug stood for one day, if memory serves, and the feature was turned off by default.
We do block our own search ads if Brave Shields is set to Aggressive mode, same as with other search engines and UGC social platforms.
What else you got?
Wish I could edit or delete my post. Sorry.
Just don't use Brave search, the separate product. Or you know, add the blocking rules yourself to the ad blocker, that works. Or you know, pay the $3 dollars to support the thing you use.
Most of the people complaining here don't actually care about this. This is all just a proxy war to go against Eich for his beliefs. It happens every Brave thread, pretty transparent and pathetic.
Of course. Just like I war against your beliefs, whatever they may be. I war against all the beliefs.
