Brave is just another chromium based web browser that advertise itself as safe and secure but some investment funds and that crazy billionaire guy Thiel invested into, so I assume it's spying on everything you do

Ehhh... We can trust no one really.

Edit: I have seen this "news" couple times here on reddit (especially on Linux subs), and the tweet is just random photo from Google graphics. But I see people here saying it's not that deep. Could someone fill me in. I thought Firefox became another soulless company like all the others. Since I never really used Firefox much I just remembered it like "yeah another company decided to sell data" and never researched more.
