    If they had simply asked if they could do this (and actually respected the user’s decision, apparently that can’t be taken for granted), no one would have a problem with it.

    Not that solves Brave’s other problems though.

      and it’s especially weird that they didn’t opt for opt out option given that they know that a lot of people that use Brave are either privacy minded people or devs (or both) so they had to know that there would be a lot of backlash

            Oh OK I understand now. Yes it’s true, this is not very fair.
