Feature request for Brave, add detailed stats about brave shield in the about:adblock page
Repository
- Repository: https://github.com/brave/browser-laptop
- Project Name: Brave Browser for Desktop
Components
User Interface and about:adblock page (brave adblock settings page) of brave.
Proposal
Brave is among the very few browsers that block tracking and fingerprinting methods used by many websites. But brave's current beta version doesn't show enough stats about what is being blocked. So, my proposal is to add detailed statistics about what is being blocked on the about:adblock page (about:adblock is the brave gui address for brave settings related to adblocking). My proposed stats that should be added:
Trackers blocked: number of trackers blocked
Cookies blocked: number of cookies blocked
Fingerprinting trackers blocked: number of fingerprinting trackers blocked
Scripts blocked: number of javascript or other scripts blocked
Crypto miners blocked: number of malicious cryptocurrency miners blocked
Estimated data saved today: the size of blocked contents
Mockups / Examples
Benefits
The data provided in the stats will allow users to learn more about what is being blocked. Developers can use the statistics for research on web trackers and use them for reference. Scientists can use the data for research.
