I'm telling you guys I switched over from FireFox to Brave this morning, nothing else, no add-blocker, nothing and am enjoying the heck outta the CF now. NO pop-ups or adds of any kind, no refreshing every 2 minutes. NHRA website was just as unusable as CF and now same on Brave. Lowered my blood pressure by 20psi 😁

I'm feeling a bit left out, I don't get any ads.
Am I missing any good sales? According to my pop-ups, you might be missing out on some smoking hot deals on 100ct. bottles of Viagra. Pop ups a reflection of your search history.... Bull, I don't search camera land, nor meds, those are the ones that were popping up on my screen. That covered content. Brave has stopped them for now!

Two things you might do after you switch to Brave are to disable the funky "Rewards" option and the News feed at the bottom. You may or may not chose to use Wallet. I don't.

The whole “sacrificing freedom and liberty and security” shtick applied to a free web site having ads that slightly inconvenience only those users too lazy or incompetent to deal with them even though several simple solutions have been posted, repeatedly, is a bit of an eye roller. I'm feeling a bit left out, I don't get any ads. Am I missing any good sales? I got no idea but I am thinking of buying a windows laptop from walmart just so I can understand what some people go through.

You're most welcome. You won't even see ads on Youtube now.
To also enable uBlock Origin, click on the oddly-shaped little icon at the top right of Brave, which is your Extensions box. Under Manage, search for uBlock Origin and install. That pretty much will eliminate any noxious thing from appearing anywhere, ever.

He didn't need to. I gave him the solution in the first reply.

Th ads I see here are the same as others have posted including screen shots to verify. It’s not a function of search history.
