Was reading an answer to the question about fresh Amazon tablet and saw this. They used up the question as a hook to promote their browser. Pretty sure I'm avoiding Brave from now on.

Q: Does the fire max 11 have YouTube app on it. A: I have installed Google Playstore , but I skip installing Youtube app . There is better option . Brave Browser in Playstore !! That thing has AWESOME popup Blocker and it's own integrated Youtube Ads and other Nuisances blocker . My point ? You don't need youtube on Fire max , You don't need Google Maps , You don't need Facebook App . Just Use Brave .

Former brave fanboy here. This company is a fucking plague and they should be on trial for misleading their users.

Absolute scam -severalbillion/10

Brave is a shit company, but I'd still take it over Google if those were the only two choices available. So yes even if it's an ad... It's not wrong.
