[QUOTE="polishpatriot, post: 858575, member: 85707"] The real issue with Brave browser is that it is monetized via the Basic Attention Token. The whole point of Brave browser is to track users and award them BAT for advertising purposes. So anyone who thinks Brave is the ultra-privacy-oriented browser, they're wrong. [URL unfurl="true"]https://basicattentiontoken.org/[/URL] On the one hand, there is the claim that Brave is a privacy oriented browser, yet it does all that tracking necessary for BAT rewards.
