I think we need all support we can get to fight Google on this, so I welcome Brave here actually.

Woah when were they caught selling user data, that would be a huge blow to them as a privacy focused browser that I've somehow never heard of.

The only thing I really found, based on a Google search, is that they sold copyrighted data to train AI models. Still bad, but for completely different reasons and that's a bigger fish than just brave.

But maybe I didn't find what the other commenter was thinking of.

Lol so it literally never happened. I guess it's true that the biggest source of misinformation is random people on the internet.
