Your quote is worthless, that summary doesn’t give any reason what’s problematic about the browser.

It’s also unfortunate that the article’s author chose to start with politics - I prefer technical reasons to stop using technical tools.

The crypto bullshit and injection of affiliate codes to URLs are indeed problematic. However, to me that just says to stay vigilant when using Brave but it’s still not as bad as Chrome.
