Episode Synopsis


I've been a big fan of Brave Browser ever since attending a presentation from Brandon Eich back in 2017.  Brave was one of the first browsers to aggressively block the ability for websites to share information on your computer without your consent (i.e. third party cookies).  I'm so excited to sit down with Jimmy Secretan, VP of Ads and Premium Services of Brave, and talk about all things Brave, from the Browser to the other products to the way Brave takes privacy on the internet to a whole new level, while also empowering content creators and advertisers who depend on ads for income and to promote their businesses.00:00:15 Introduction00:00:44 Introducing Jimmy Secretan00:01:10 How Brave started00:09:33 Brave and internet advertising00:21:13 Local machine learning00:32:07 What is BAT (Brave Attention Tokens) 00:42:59 Cross-platform data synchronization 00:44:28 Chromium00:50:22 Public and Private key encryption and authentication00:54:27 Brave for Content Creators00:59:03 Where is Brave now and what is its trajectory01:05:40 Opportunities in Brave01:13:10 FarewellsResources mentioned in this episode:Jimmy Secretan, VP of Ads and Premium Services:Twitter: https://twitter.com/jsecretanLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimmysecretan/ Brave:Website: https://brave.com/Brave Careers: https://brave.com/careers/Twitter: https://twitter.com/braveLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/brave-software/If you’ve enjoyed this episode, you can listen to more on Programming Throwdown’s website: https://www.programmingthrowdown.com/ Reach out to us via email: [email protected] You can also follow Programming Throwdown on Facebook | Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Player.FM  Join the discussion on our DiscordHelp support Programming Throwdown through our Patreon
