  • CEO is also homophobic and a covid skeptic
  • the browser used to modify crypto exchange URLs to add it's affiliate code to it
  • it used to collect donations for content creators without their consent

Why people always forget the simple:

Switching Google to Brave is not an upgrade is a sidegrade.

Firefox is

  1. Dependant on Google's ad revenue
  2. Joining the advertising market themselves

  1. Dependant on Google's money, the majority of Google comes from ads but not all of them. The deal is not directly with ads, is the default search engine on Firefox.
  2. This is recently, sucks a lot but we did not see yet how they'll use that with the browser.

More importantly the biggest difference is Brave want to be like Google, is the goal of the company. Mozilla is funding the project in the shittiest way possible but is not the end goal.

So you are sure that Google and Mozilla doesn't employ any homophobics? They obviously have some sort of mind reader?

You are right, I should have been more specific. He's openly homophobic. I'm also pretty sure that's not the case for Mozilla as he was Mozilla's CEO and was pushed out over this specific thing.

I don't know why you are shifting from CEO to employees.
