STRONGLY agreed.
Would not touch Brave with a bargepole. Not just no, OH H3LL NO.
[1] It's by Brandon Eich, a homophobe who funded anti-gay-marriage legislation.
[2] They are into cryptocurrencies. They even have their own. All CCs
are scams, 100%, no exceptions
[3] Brave rewrites other people's referrer URLs so that Brave pocket
the revenues. That is dishonest and tantamount to theft.
[4] Brave is based on Chrome. Google doesn't need any help from
anyone. I do not want Google to own web rendering. That would be very
very bad.
Any one of those alone makes it a "no" from me. 2 of 'em would make me
back away fast. 3 would be a permanent ban. As for all 4... oh fsck
no. I won't even install the thing. Never have, won't even try it.
Brave: just say no.
