Brave Browser's founder and CEO:

Spoke out against vaccines.

Claim COVID was a hoax.

Spoke out against women's rights and abortion.

The man is a Nazi who supports a Nazi Pedophile (Trump). Guy swallowed the MAGA Red Pill years ago, and has only double-down.

#Brave #BraveBrowser

@NetscapeNavigator Nice browser though

@konkelaar

Bad browser, which spies on its users, and only empowers a Nazi.

It would be smarter to user anything else. For myself, I choose Vivaldi.

@NetscapeNavigator yeah i could see that in your name lol. I didn't know Brave spies on its users. Where did you get that idea? Btw their search engine is great

@konkelaar

In the thread I quoted, several users posted URLs concerning the privacy concerns both with their web browser, and search engine.

You'd be better trusting an evil corporation like Google or Bing, than you would be Brave Search which is worse.

@NetscapeNavigator ah yes I've read the article now. Honestly, most of it is just a business trying to make some money off of mostly free services, and the right wing stuff seems harmless. Though i do fully understand that it doesn't feel good to use software and services that don't fully align with your moral compass. I'm a degoogler myself

@konkelaar

> and the right wing stuff seems harmless

Harmless? Harmless, you say?

So you find people supporting Nazis, pedophiles, COVID deniers, and the like harmless, do you?

Yeah, I’ve heard all I need to hear from you. You’re one of those people who will argue that Brave Browser and the beliefs of the people behind the company are separate things — the so-called “that’s different” argument. It’s not different, because those are the people you’re empowering — Nazis and the like.
