Have you read the article? They install their VPN before the user decides to use that service, when they could simply install it when the user decides to subscribe to their VPN.
I’m going to be downvoted for this but it’s recommended on privacy guides because they generally lack strict criteria with browsers. Both Firefox and Brave make automatic connections that shouldn’t be allowed.
@governorkeagan@throws_lemy Privacy Guides has a set of objective criteria to judge a browser’s security and privacy. People tend to hate Brave for reasons unrelated to security and privacy. Like the CEO’s politics, crypto (and recently AI) integration in the browser, some shady history about injecting referral codes, etc.
Personally, I wish I could find an alternative that is as good as Brave. Until then, I’ll keep using it as it is perfect for my needs.
I’m clearly out of the loop with the hate towards Brave. Why all the hate? Also, if it’s hated so much why is it still recommended on Privacy Guides?
EDIT Thank you for all the informative responses!
Non-unironically, Brave paid shills.
