[QUOTE="PotentialUser, post: 890562, member: 87776"] [USER=71262]@oldschool[/USER] I'm not into conspiracy theories either, nor do I mistrust Brave. I just don't want Brave to make connections to features that I'm not using that may be a potential security risk in the future. Not on Brave's end but on CryptoCompare's end. For example, PageFair is a service used by many websites to block ad-blockers. But PageFair itself was hacked and served malware to users of websites that are clients of PageFair. That was unfortunate because those website didn't have anything to do with it. They just enabled PageFair to save some ad revenue and it cost them their own reputation as their visitors were re-directed to malicious content. I just don't want to be in a situation where CryptoCompare is hacked and downloads something malicious without Brave's dev team knowing about it. Especially because I don't even use their Crypto Wallets feature anyway. [/QUOTE]
