People need to learn to separate the art from the artist. I don't care what the CEO thinks politically I have a thousand more things to worry about.

True that, but I don't have any control over whose the CEO of a product I use, 99% of CEOs would literally sell their children for more money if they could

I wasn't using Brave at that time, and I probably won't even care if they did that with me, my experience with the browser has been exceptional and I wouldn't mind letting them get affiliates when 100% of my purchases don't have any affiliate links anyway, I'm not losing anything and they're getting money too.

But yeah they shouldn't have done the replacing part, if someone wanted to support someone's affiliate programme and Brave automatically replaced their affiliate link it would of course make people angry.

Though that happened years ago and probably wouldn't happen today, I hope.

That reminds of the Honey extension scam but they did the same thing with affiliate cookies.

Should've picked Brave instead it at least gives you a better user experience.

If you're wondering bout the crypto stuff, all that can be turned off in under 1 minute in the settings. Turned it off years ago and forgot about it until someone once brought that up in a conversation.

I also use other Browsers like Floorp, Waterfox, Chrome, Librewolf etc.
