So, I shared some quick and rough ideas here (https://www.publish0x.com/korlithiel/been-thinking-about-bing-rewards-vs-brave-on-ios-xpnojrp) about how it feels off that Brave can exist on iOS, can have advertisement notifications in-app, but cannot earn crypto. Lately I've been wondering if there is a way to push Apple into allowing Brave to work as designed, after all so much of iOS ensures that third party apps are second class citizens already (integration of third party apps has notable limits, which means they can't compete directly with the deep level of integration that default apps have, one such instance is the base stocks apps has access to your News+ subscription for articles, even though it rather leaves much else to be desired).

Well, what better time to look into Apple's options to contest rulings than when Apple is set to testify before congress on their antitrust concerns(https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/12/apple-agrees-to-send-executive-to-testify-before-senate-on-antitrust-.html). Sure, Apple will likely continue to merely point towards their desire for positive user interactions, but why would users stick with an app (that they had to go out of their way to install and set up) if they disliked the user experience? Feels like Apple is against the advertising industry lately, even if they say (Tim Cook says Apple isn't against digital ads, wants user control and transparency) since Brave has always been quite transparent about whether users can opt in to earning rewards via the ads or live without.
