The user can opt out of all that stuff the author complains about (the crypto, etc), and I do. But I remain a fan of the founder and CEO for his "unpopular" stance on issues of the day.
Brave is built on Chromium, which relies on and defaults to Google way too much. There's ungoogled-chromium, which is a little better, but it still "wants" to run back to Google, at least in my experience. You can turn off any features you don't want, and doing so is simple. Browsing is ad-free, private, and fast.
And the author concludes his rant in a way that is typical of far-left extremists: "If you disagree then you're a moron."
The article isn't a review of a product, it's a political rant.
