If you are keen on personal privacy, you might have come across Brave Browser. Brave is a Chromium-based browser that promises to deliver privacy with built-in ad-blocking and content-blocking protection. It also offers several quality-of-life features and services, like a VPN and Tor access. I mean, it’s even listed on the reputable PrivacyTools website. Why am I telling you to steer clear of this browser, then?

    We can have an open source browser.

    Most browsers are already open source. They’re all funded by advertising (except Safari which is a whole other problem).

    No resources are required.

    Are you planning to imagine it into existence?

    When you find one that has some sort of sustainable model that isn’t advertising, please let me know. I’ll be all over it.
