The Brave browser is billed as an ad-blocking, privacy protecting, champion of the everyday internet user.

We know they’re not, but they openly masquerade as one and so when they do something shady it’s somewhat relevant to put them on blast yet again. Just look at all the people in this thread alone that are like “oh wtf Brave isn’t good for privacy?”

I mean I’m sorry you’re not learning anything new from this content but we should probably be happy others are.
