      The owner of the Brave browser is known to have right-wing political beliefs. Some people don’t think it’s ethical to use the browser because of this, instead of not using Brave because it sucks.

        Value alignment with the people you let influence your life is a very complex thing.

        I don’t use it because it sucks, but not using it because the owner is an asshole is a perfectly valid attitude.
