Literally nothing will get me to use this crypto scam of a browser.

    Running Linux would block this feature too.

    Just reason sayin.

    Switching to Linux made me like computers again. Switching to Hyprland made me love computers again.

    Brave's CEO is a homophobic Trump supporter. No thanks.

    The better option would be to not use spyware as an operating system.

    Unfortunately that would involve using the Brave browser, which is an antifeature in itself.

    Brave browser blocks Windows feature that takes screenshots of everything you do on your PC

    As does Linux.

    They haven't blocked the windows feature, they're using DRM to interfere with it. Microsoft could easily change how the DRM works any time they want, rendering all these hacks useless.

    Let me know when it is discovered that they in fact replaced MS Recall with their own version that was scraping your data in yet another sketchy attempt to make money.

    In this thread something I see a lot on lemmy is happening. Maybe someone can give me a hint on how that happens. The post itself is 90% upvotes, while the comment section is really anti-Brave (for good reasons). Do most upvotes come from people scrolling through without looking at the comment section and those with an opinion on the topic dive into it?

    The sad thing is that you now have to protect yourself against the OS you are using. Feels a bit like in the movie TRON.
