      Even if it weren’t for the crypto, Brave’s CEO is one sleazy, untrustworthy motherfucker. I’d never put my privacy in his hands. Just an absolute dogshit reputation.

        I figured there was enough to criticize without needing to resort to ad-hominem attacks against the CEO. However, if we’re going there, then I’d be remiss not to point out that he’s also the motherfucker who inflicted Javascript upon the world when we could’ve had a decent language like Python or Scheme in the browser instead. Not to downplay the significance of his bigotry, but that’s almost the greatest sin of them all!

          Homophobes always come bundled with a lot of other problems. There’s no way anyone can trust a homophobe of any kind.

          Anyway, blocking you. Have a great life, asshole.

          Edit: Bonus fuck javascript

          Edit 2: This was so wrong of me, I’m sorry. I’m an ass. Leaving my comment for honesty’s sake.

      It’s also yet another Chromium fork which if there’s one thing the world does not need more of, it’s Chromium forks

        Fact: your opinion is based on snippets of things you heard online and doesn’t actually match reality 🤷

        My facts come directly from Brave’s own claims, so fuck off with your condescension, fanboi. Your dismissive trolling isn’t welcome here.

          Find me a claim from Brave’s that it’s a protection racket.

          Find me a claim from Brave’s that it’s a crypto scam. NOT just that they use crypto, but that it’s a scam.

          And before you start, a blanket statement of “all crypto is a scam” is not a fact. It’s hyperbole and your opinion.

          So do you actually have “facts”? Or did you just present opinions as facts?

            Of course criminals aren’t going to admit that they’re criminals. But when they describe their behavior (in this case, man-in-the-middle replacing sites’ ads with their own and then extorting them to participate in the crypto scheme in order to replace the revenue) anybody objective would recognize that it is, in fact, criminal.
