If you are keen on personal privacy, you might have come across Brave Browser. Brave is a Chromium-based browser that promises to deliver privacy with built-in ad-blocking and content-blocking protection. It also offers several quality-of-life features and services, like a VPN and Tor access. I mean, it’s even listed on the reputable PrivacyTools website. Why am I telling you to steer clear of this browser, then?
Most browsers are open source. They’re all funded by advertising (except Safari which is a whole other problem). When you find one that has some sort of sustainable model that isn’t advertising, please let me know. I’ll be all over it.
