    Brave has crypto minded shit built in, and they “protect you” by running their own tracking network, so they can be the exclusive sellers of the data.

    Fuck brave.

      Saved your comment so I can quote it anytime I see somebody try to push Brave on someone else. It’s like the Jehovah’s Witnesses of browsers Istg.

      It’s opt-in.

      they can be the exclusive sellers of the data.

      You just described every single internet service that you’re not actively paying for.

      Fuck Brave.

      I respect your opinion, even if it’s silly.

        Do they still hijack links to add their own referral codes?

        Yeah, the part that makes you money is. Still have to manually disable all of the popups and icons begging you to use it.

        You just described every single internet service that you’re not actively paying for.

        Difference is those sites don’t necessarily advertise themselves as “privacy respecting”
