BAT is on a mission to fix what is now a 'broken web'. Ads are everywhere. They follow you from site to site. collecting personal information, tracking your browsing activity and cluttering content all the while slowing you down. Average person downloads more than 2000 ads and trackers everyday. BRAVE wants to change that. They believe that your web browsing data should not be collected without your permission, package into profile and sold to the highest bidder to use for even more advertisement. Instead, BRAVE believes that it can make the browsing more controlled, faster and private. BRAVE has built a browser for phones and computers - an ethereum based token called Basic Attention Token (B.A.T). Brave browser blocks ads and trackers that compromise your privacy. To help websites make up for lost revenue, BRAVE makes it possible to acquire BATs and give it directly to your favorite sites. Or, you can enable Brave rewards which serves ads which do not collect your data. When you obtain a Brave rewards, sites you visit are paid in back and you are rewarded too for paying attention too. It's a win for everyone except for third party ad trackers, of course.
