Brave is a Privacy focused web browser based on Chromium and comes with built in protection from Tracking and Advertising sites.
Brave recognise that money still needs to be made on the Internet, so they offer their own Brave Rewards to support content creators in return for viewing privacy-respecting ads.
My interest is running a browser with cookies completely disabled, with the exception of a few websites that I want to easily add to an allow list. Brave certainly ticks this box and I’m in the process of making it my primary web browser and replacing Firefox

Showing off the new NoTrack Analytics and Alerts.
A script is run every hour to check if any known malicious sites have been accessed, and it also looks for possible tracking and advertising sites which haven’t been blocked.
I think NoTrack v0.9.0 is pretty much complete.
Command for existing NoTrack v0.9.0 users to add Analytics:
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/sbin/ntrk-analytics /etc/cron.hourly/ntrk-analytics

1:00 Input Variables / Arguments into a Function
