Brave can suck it too.
Why so?
I believe I remember they had a crypto thing going on
they will show you their own ads through operating system notifications, but without collecting your personal data to do so. the program is also entirely opt-in and is thus disabled by default, so the user has to knowingly and willingly enable it.
Yeah but who cares about that
They guy that founded brave only did so after getting fired from Mozilla for homophobia
