It does block some tracking and ads that Chrome alone allows or explicitly adds. But it simply shifts that tracking to Brave. The idea was that you’d still get the benefits of that tracking by giving all of your data to Brave instead. I honestly never was convinced by this considering your data is still being sold, just by a different company so it doesn’t sound much better to me. Supposedly, according to them, Brave is more trustworthy and gives you more control over what they track and sell, but I don’t trust that business model. There’s no real incentive for them to do what they said they would.
It gets pushed often by reactionaries as an “anti-woke” browser LOL its a complete piece of shit. It’s got crypto, tracking, NFTs, AI and ads baked in. Literally everything I hate about the tech industry rolled up into one package. I’d rather use Chrome, even.
I find it quite interesting those who protest being woke. The word ‘woke’ has a long standing meaning to the Black community. The usual suspects using the word ‘anti-woke’ are almost always American Republicans, and their track record of racial animosity has preceded itself for generations like the stench of a rotting corpse. Given the choice between being woke or asleep, I’ll take woke any day.
No. At least not in the way most people expect.

Isn’t Brave just a crypto scam? I have no clue why people trust it so much
