You use a browser whose business model is based on monitizing user activity tracking... And are happy with the privacy?

The first warning signs where the bottomless marketing budget of Brave after it was brand new. Marketing money that was obviously well worth it since their users do the marketing now. The thing is marketing budgets come from something and for brand new companies that don't have income streams that something is usually investors who have been sold a value proposition. And that value proposition is most likely you and your data.
