From article:

If you have the Brave Browser installed on your Windows devices, then you may also have Brave VPN services installed on the machine. Brave installs these services without user consent on Windows devices.

More reason to ditch the crypto bro browser.

If you look at what a raging tool the CEO is and the implications of the browser's association with crypto (no matter how optional), I think that Brave just attracts that type of person

Makes sense given that the Brave CEO is a member of an actual cult.

Which one is that?

the mormon church. it’s the reason he donates money to anti-lgbt causes.

Thought for sure the answer was going to be the Cult of Crypto

I actually didn't know that when I opened this thread!!!
