Im shocked. The browser that’s always been a bit sketchy is caught being sketchy?
This isn’t a privacy issue it’s a piracy issue. Which I have no problem with.
What the hell. Guys read the fucking article. I mean both articles, there is another one linked into the main one. The inner article is bullshit, the author misunderstood a website. That makes the outer article bullshit too! How can people upvote such low quality posts???
An article by Alex Ivanovs of Stack Diary brought the allegations against Brave to light.
Then why the fuck are we reading this shit article and not reading the other one? I hate modern “journalism”.
Also, from the original, non-ripped-off article (links retained):
And don’t get me wrong, I love Brave, and I’ve given them credit where it’s due; it’s also my understanding that the Brave Search API feature is new as a whole (released in May 2023), so perhaps it wasn’t or hasn’t been thought through completely.
So, whatever fear-mongering this SEJ shit article was trying to cultivate is completely absent in the original article.
Something always felt wrong with this browser. After using it for a few minutes I uninstalled it right away, it didn’t feel right.
Oh look, bias confirmation but refused to read the article and just looked at the headline.
I read the article, it’s still a crap browser. Even if the article is bullshit, a browser that advertises itself as good for privacy and then giving you “free money”, it doesn’t add up. You can say all you want, you can even be a crypto shill for all I care, if they give you anything for free, you are the product, nothing is free.
So which paid browser are you using?
w3m, qutebrowser, firefox built from source with telemetry and other stuff patched out . Firefox really when a site didn’t work on w3m or qutebrowser.
