@tomscott: This warning is prompted by a company called Brave, who've been taking cryptocurrency donations "for me", using my name and photo, without my consent. I asked them not to, and to refund anyone who's donated; they said "we'll see what we can do" and that "refunds are impossible".
I was reading about it here:

First I heard of it and was curious if anyone has tried it. I love the idea of blocking ads and trackers by default.
