I have to imagine they will strip it because if they don't, it'll be dead to all of their users.

It may be dead to its users anyway depending on how forceful Google is with this. If Brave doesn't work on 98.8% of all websites with advertising or indeed on 49.5% of all websites (approximately Google's ad network's reach), it becomes as niche as lynx.

Yeah Brave would probably be fucked then. If you can't have privacy anyway, might as well use Chrome.

No brave users don‘t care. Brave proved how untrustworthy they are and in any case their business model is unethical yet they still have a cult like following plus a group of crypto bros that are obsessed with getting digital pennies.

I'm a Brave user that certainly cares. They're not untrustworthy.
