Mozilla is a political organization, not a web browser developer. I’ll keep using brave.

Brave is a cryptocurrency. No thanks.

[gabrielsroka]

I don't see that at all. I've been using Brave for years and nothing to do with crypto. There is a BAT thing, but you can disable it.

The BAT thing is the cryptocurrency. No thanks.

[gabrielsroka]

I said that, but you can disable it.

Can you explain your comment? Is it forcing me to use crypto and I'm not aware of it? Am I mining?

[postalrat]

I'm not interested in handing over my privacy to a company seeking out creative sources of revenue.

I have used Brave for years. I've never seen any of their ads and hardly see any other hands since they have a pop-up blocker.

Really? Mozilla is a political organisation and Brave, the very same organisation that hires a fired Mozilla CEO that publicly opposes same-sex marriage, is not a political organisation?

Cool.

[gmerc]

Every corporation is political. To pretend otherwise is … American.

[mrd3v0]

Agreed. Just perplexed by the double standards.

Brave is a man-child’s tantrum that he had to face the consequences of being a bigot.

If Mozilla is a "politcal organization," their whole politics is centered on how to shape the web. And, idk, having a strong position on such ideas seems pretty damn relevant to this conversation.

Using "political" like a slur is childish and naive.
