The federal government argues Google has smothered competition by paying companies such as Apple and Verizon to lock in its search engine as the default.

      Brave is malware made by a company run by a fucking bigot who used his millions to try to strip people of their human rights. They are not your friend

        What does being a bigot have anything to do with developing a search engine or a browser? Mozilla has also gone woke, dwelling into politics instead of developing a browser.

          gone woke

          The fact that you unironically use the phrase “gone woke” means discussion with you is pointless.

          Enjoy being blocked.

            Can’t provide any actual arguments so you just block people you disagree with? Not like I expected much logic or sense from someone such as you.

          Brendan Eich literally spent millions of dollars to push for the passage of Prop 8 in California, which would have banned same-sex marriage.

          That’s the literal definition of a bigot.

              Not false. He admitted it and was forced to out of Mozilla because of it. It was a massive scandal.

                  Why do you seem so invested in the fact that well-known bigots might not actually be bigots?

                  When people tell you who they are: believe them.

                  No one is throwing “fake” bigotry accusations at anyone. And if you believe they are, then you also are a bigot. Period.

      Source on that?

      But I mean, if you prefer anything Brave does, sure.

          Not the point. Crypto injection links shouldn’t be sneakily added into a “privacy” oriented browser.

          However, you never provided any proof that DDG censors and sells user data. You’ve made big claims, but didn’t back them.

      Brave might not be better.
