      Ah, so the classic “Every accusation a confession.”

      Thought this was sort of a wild claim about Firefox out of left field. No wonder.

      I had a coworker excitedly tell me that he had earned a total of $12 MXN ($0.67 USD) from Brave. 🤦‍♂️

        BETTER IT NOT EXIST AT ALL

        If I went to a restaurant, they placed a hot steaming stinky turd sandwich on my table and then went “oh, but you don’t have to have it”, I still wouldn’t fucking eat there.

        Why should we be okay with the Turd Sandwich that is crypto being served by Brave being opt-in???

          That’s not how restaurants work dude. It’s more akin to being asked if you want to hear today’s specials before you order.

            There’s a thing called metaphor. A hyperbolic one in this case.

            I know that’s not how restaurants work.

            And no, it’s not like being asked about the specials, as they don’t cook it and serve it without asking for the specials.

            They bring out the hot fresh steaming crypto shit sandwich to you whether you want it or not, and then go “oh, but you don’t have to have it, if you don’t want”
