He was on trial for taking loans on fake gains.

That’s not quite right.

If you buy something for 300m, with 200m in loans, and sell it for 250m, you pay the loan back first, and have 50m in losses. Your taxes go down.

He only pays tax on gains.

Remember the whole case is him inflating property value to get loans. Between the fire sale, and the bad loans, it’s very likely he has little to no equity. He could sell all he has and not have any money to pay the $500m (plus interest.) Which also means little to no tax burden.

Can’t you hash it before uploading and upload just the hash? Or download the banned hash list locally.

I’m not sure what’s in the bag has anything to do with if you twist before you tuck.

Twisting emulates how the bread seals with a clip. It’s more a habit of some sort, like double tapping the trigger on a drill to see if it has power.

Cuz it can fall apart if moved or slid. Needs to be redone when picked up.

Who folds without twisting??

(Ok I do sometimes, but I know it’s wrong.)

Sure but that sounds like liberty and autonomy, not privacy.

I asked specifically how it infringes on privacy. Seems like the wrong word to use.

Can someone explain how Brave siphoning some money from Amazon specifically impacts privacy? Does the affiliate get a list of accounts that bought something? Names? Addresses? Or does some money just show up in their account?

What information does Amazon get? That the person clicking is using Brave? They already know that from the user agent.

Look closer. It went from 255g to 200g.

In this case you are wrong. This article is by Forbes Staff, not a contributor.

Forbes uses one name to deliver two different products, one of which is an in house magazine.
