        They’re Chromium based, which erodes any possible claim they could make to privacy.

        Use Firefox instead. You can lock it down further than you can Brave and they don’t rely on Google.

          Doesn’t Mozilla rely on Google for funding? Genuine question, as I though i read this else where on Lemmy

            They might get some money from them but certainly not entirely. There’s an entire Mozilla Foundation.

        I never used Brave, but I believe it was sometime after they started their ad-currency-whatever-thingy (I could of course be wrong).
