I've never pirated anything made by a giant mega-corporation! That would be wrong and immoral!

It supported desktop extensions before, then they got rid of that and now they're going to do it again?

Your ISP doesn’t know what you posted on Reddit and reddit doesn’t know who you are behind your natted ip.

data brokers do and internet providers and law enforcement buys that data.

all facebook owned services forbid you from being anonymous on their platforms.

Twitter still allows anonymous users and satire accounts...but paying for a checkmark reveals who and where you really are.

As I said, he has posted why he spent money to deny gay people the right to marry and to nullify the marriages of gay people who were already married,

Yeah and it had a lot of success, didn't it?

A majority of even republican voters are in favor of allowing consenting adults to marry. A majority of republican voters are also in favor of medicare for all and ending the illegal wars the US is involved in. And a majority of republicans are also against all the toppling of democratically elected leaders that the US does too...once they're made aware of it anyway.

If he's still a bigot, the solution would be for the LGBT community to reach out an arm of friendship to him.

Once he realizes that they're going through all the same problems he's going through he won't hate them anymore.

Well there is one problem. A lot of websites will lock you out if they see you using firefox. I have to spoof my useragent to show I'm using....some other browser. Ha! Nice try! You almost got me to reveal some of my op-sec

Again, the sheer volume of propaganda that's out there about everything that helps protect your privacy. People still think the Tor network and the Tor Browser are exclusively used by criminals.

Some people think that VPNs are exclusively used by criminals namely viewers of CP.

And it's because of shills, some from the government and some from corporations, mixed in with groups of people that spread lies like those that people think that.

Brave is a relatively good browser. In terms of privacy it's way better than chrome and edge. And I know for a fact that google, maybe microsoft too are trying to take control of everything by forcing everyone to use their own browsers so that they can be spied on easier and they're also trying to make it so you can't visit their own websites with an adblocker enabled.

Brave has adblocking built in and it blocks a lot of trackers from collecting your data too.

Even if the creator of brave is bigoted against gay people, which I still don't believe he actually is. Is he the one trying to restrict access to pro-gay stuff online? Is he the one trying to restrict people's access to anything at all? Google and Microsoft are trying to do those things if you don't use their browsers with no extensions in them

If he was a bigot back then, is he still a bigot now?

Again, I only ever use brave when I can't make something work with firefox. Which is almost never.

You can get web filters and extensions.

Adguard for desktop has pretty good filters for malware and phishing domains

Then there's also avira browser safety and bitdefender traffic light. Emsisoft browser protection, malwarebytes browser guard.

Firefox also gives you a lot of stuff in the about: config menu to prevent many different kinds of tracking from advertisers and the websites themselves.

AdNausem is another good browser extension.

I can't imagine why it wouldn't. The companies that make printers have always been scamming people with their printers and all the shitty things the printers do.

They're designed to be shitty and expensive on purpose so that you have to call the guy to fix it and pay an enormous amount of money every time the printer stops working by design.

Okay, so the creator of Brave might be a bigot and some of the stuff it does with crypto currency is a little sketchy? And the ads it replaces with the blocked ads are somewhat invasive?

So disable the crypto stuff and use ad-blocking software along with its own adblocking functions.

If a mechanic fixes my car and does a really good job, but he might have some shitty opinions of gay people, as long as he fixes my car I don't care about what he might think of gay people.

Everyone needs to be aware that there's propaganda everywhere. microsoft and google REALLY want you to use their browsers and people are tired of the data MS Edge and chrome collect.

I for one, hate that chrome constantly connects other shit to your google account with just one accidental click sometimes. Edge does the same shit, but brave is the only chromium based browser that doesn't deceptively do shit like that.

I still like firefox better and I only have brave for those rare instances where firefox won't work on a website. And I don't actually believe that the creator of brave is actually a bigot. Pro-liberty, Pro-privacy and anti-surveillance types are always getting smeared as bigots when they aren't.
