It is controversial. It smells nicer to me than browsers attaching to Google, MS or Apple. Worse: Ads from social network sites! To me, it's a fist in the face of conventional ads. I think people misunderstand the point as well as the content model or Basic Attention Token (BAT).
I am perplexed by Brave. I think that substituting ads is a way to highkjack revenue from the content sites who attract more advertisement money to Brave's customers.
This does not smell good to me.

Also, mobile ads FFS. Talk about nighmares. And I spent a lot of time with @Opera before the split when they bought up mobile advertising. Wise for profit. Not for a nice user experience.
