When you download Brave for Windows, you are also downloading the company's VPN service, for better or worse.

    Just a reminder, any time you see a “tech” youtuber with brave installed, they’re not going to be an excellent source of information

      Brodie Robertson is an excellent source of information ☹️

        Except in terms of browser choice apparently. Either they’re ignorant or being paid. Either way it’s not a good sign.
