It's telling me I can't view it on Brave. This makes me worry we're too reliant on archive.is.

The dispute centers on Brave's ability to overwrite ads. You can turn on a feature where, in place of, for example, CNN's ads on cnn.com, Brave will swap them out with ads that support Brave. You might turn that on to send a few bucks their way.

Brave advertises a feature where a website can send a special header that tells Brave not to do that - to just block the ads instead. Archive.is has turned that feature on, but Brave continues to replace their ads with Brave ads.

The Archive.is people say WTF is this bullshit? Either show our ads or block our ads, but we don't want you swapping them out for your ads. And until Brave agrees to abide by their own advertised features, archive.is has decided to block them.

all of the archive.xx sites are basically owned by google. If they can't track and identify you, they will keep you out. Think about that the next time you follow an archive.is link.
