Recently reset Brave Rewards but no longer seeing ads

[tungsten_hammer]

I recently reset Brave Rewards on my browser and unlinked my Uphold account from it (for privacy reasons and I don’t really like the Uphold platform). I did this by going to brave://rewards/, clicking the cogwheel and selecting ‘Reset’.
