Brave Browser's New Custom Scriptlets: Take Control of Your Browsing Experience

Brave Browser version 1.75 introduces 'custom scriptlets' for desktop users, allowing advanced users to inject their own JavaScript into websites for deep customization. Similar to Tampermonkey and Greasemonkey, this feature enables users to create scripts modifying website functionality. Initially developed for debugging Brave's ad blocker, its value led to its release. Custom scriptlets enhance privacy, security, and usability by blocking trackers, customizing appearance, and improving accessibility. However, caution is advised as untrusted scripts pose risks. The feature is located in `brave://settings/shields/filters` and requires enabling 'Developer mode'.
