This might be the most "Hacker News" comment I've ever read. Whether or not I agree with the way Brave goes about their business, I'm not going to deny they are trying new things which is the definition of innovation.
Well, neither of the things I mentioned are hard to look up. I even worded them specifically to make it easier to instantly find a source, I just happen to be away from my PC right now or I would have linked the sources myself.
I have not seen any innovation from them so far, sorry to say. They are using a pre-existing browser engine, they are lawyered up and don’t respond to public callouts, and they have a history of doing dumb shit that had their CEO cave and apologise for a “mistake”.
If this is opinion then I think you need to look up what that word really means…
