It cannot be true that you never saw a single ad because brave cannot block first party ads and the probability that you never ever visited a site that uses 1st party ads is basically zero.

“Basically zero” is not the same thing as zero. “Probably untrue” is not the same thing as “not true”.

This very site uses 1st party ads, so we know for certain that the probability I was talking about is actually zero and not merely basically zero.
