WHY I RECOMMEND AGAINST BRAVE

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

The Brave Browser is a Chromium-based browser that promises to deliver privacy with built-in ad-blocking along with quality-of-life features like a VPN. This article goes through Brave's history from controversy around the CEO to a list of privacy violations and missteps. Some of the violations include replacing ads with Brave ads, using content creators in a donation campaign without consent, injecting referral links, adding ads to the New Tab page, and hiding their web crawler.
