You are misrepresenting your own link. Not to mention this is a biased list.

Chromium does not include any of the many built in privacy features, add-block features, etc..., that Brave does by default.

Don't get me wrong, Brave's crypto junk is garbage, but atleast you could understand the rational for it. They seem to actually want to make a privacy focused, general purpose, browser fork, and they need funding from it from somewhere.

The only bullet here that might have to do with "safety" is:

> In 2021, Brave's TOR window was found leaking DNS queries, and a patch was only widely deployed after articles called them out. (h/t schklom for pointing this out!)

Its pretty well known that the official TOR browser is what you should probably use if you need TOR.

"The need funding from it somewhere" is the concerning part. Don't let desperate people run your browser. They already got caught injecting their own referral codes into links then just said "oh sorry."

I'm not here to claim that Brave is without issues. The whole crypto stuff is stupid. However, they have seemed to responsibly moved on from their previous failures, and that's okay with me. None of their previous failures intentionally attempted to affect user privacy or sell user data. That's what we are talking about here.

Brave is objectively better for user privacy than base Chromium. That is without question. If you disagree, please provide evidence to those claims.
