mfs who don't know will recommend brave even though in the past it has had every single bad feature that people got mad about in the past while still claiming to be a privacy-conscous browser.
• CEO is a Anti-vax homophobe
• Affiliate Hijacking (a la honey)
• ad hijacking
• Straight up theft (holding onto money people send to creators if they didn't make an account through brave rewards despite the creators not wanting to make an account nor have their name related to crypto)
• ads on the new tab screen
• pop up ads in your notifications
• crypto
etc...

@Jessica To be fair most people recommending it in my experience are libertarians, aka they are 100% fine with antivax and homophobia and yell at you for "making everything political" if you point it out.
