skilledtothegillsThe shady world of Brave selling copyrighted data for AI training
Can anyone recommend a good alternative that works well under Linux and block ads and trackers well? In particular YouTube ads?
Firefox with uBlock Origin has been working well for me, for ads at least. I haven’t looked too much into blocking trackers but I think Firefox has some ability to do that

What about a search engine though?

I used to use it but switched to brave after reading that they lied about tracking.
Any others? (and not the one that requires a subscription, thanks)

resketrekeStartpage supposedly uses Google's search engine without tracking your ip.
Not heard of them, will check it out, thanks!
That's strange, I use Mullvad VPN and Startpage is my main search engine and It's only given me trouble once. They made me fill a captcha and wait a while in order to be able to use it again, but it was just an our at most.
I read quite a few reviews that said they were having this problem, and I don't really have the kind of patience it takes to wait that long. 😂
Fair enough lol. Just for the record, I've had this problem once in 6 months.
