I chucked Brave shortly after they decided to install a VPN service on my machine without consent or notification.

A service that silently reinstalled itself on Brave update.

A service that did not remove itself when you uninstall Brave. It took a lot of research and time to rip out the guts of that. I will never trust Brave again.

I think brave should be disregarded as something safe and privacy respecting if they were willing to silently whitelist Facebook trackers in the past. Then there is their whole crypto obsession.
