VPN is a paid service, it doesn't connect to anywhere if one doesn't pay. This is just a service installed just in case. And complaining about this while using Windows , the OS with unavoidable telemetry, spyware and ads is just laughable.
Mozilla did far worse "mistakes" over the time (Pocket , Cliqz, Mr. Robot, deal with the worst privacy offenders on the Earth such as Google Facebook, Amazon, CEO pay rise while firing devs and losing market share, while begging for donations... and so on) but they somehow always get a free pass, with people swallowing Mozilla's corpo PR every single time.
Wow...a "FUD" user in the wild.
Wow, a Mozilla shill in the wild.
Says the dude very obviously shilling for Brave. You've solidified my decision to uninstall it.
Mozilla isn't some paragon of free open source non-profit charity like everyone is claiming, they need to make a profit just like everyone else to keep themselves up there as a competitor to Google. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Corporation
Currently use Firefox and Brave for different applications but I am considering switching to Vivaldi, I definitely want to do more research on all of them though.
I'm no fan of either Mozilla, Brave or Vivaldi.
Each of them is trying to make a cut with the browser.
I'd advise against Vivaldi because they have telemetry and it's proprietary.
What I suggest instead are free software, community managed projects that have no monetary interests in distributing the browsers: Librewolf and Ungoogled Chromium. Unlike Brave, Vivaldi or even Mozilla, these devs don't have incentives to put anti features into their browsers.
Currently migrating over to Librewolf, I really liked what it has to offer. Thank you for the suggestion!
The usual anti-Brave hate wagon, with FUD and pitchforks. They're already working on it:
