I’ve been seeing a lot of people hate and uninstall Brave. Why? It’s not like they’re tracking us or doing anything else shady. If so, what’s the privacy alternative?

    I’m pro digial cash / Monero … but it doesn’t belong in a web browser. Super sketchy shit they are doing with BAT, which means they are tracking you.

      I legitimately would be fine with automatically paying authors. It’s not like I enjoy pay walls, ads, or AI garbage writing.

      But yeah that’s a job for existing crypto and a Firefox extension. Nothing about this needed a separate money supply or browser.

      • Yeah but if you automatically pay authors a dollar or two for every view, rather than your data, then how will data brokers resell your data hundreds of times for hundreds of dollars?
