Peter Theil is the primary investor in Brave.

For those not in the know, Peter Theil is a MAGA Christian-Nationalist fascist, and owner of Palantir.

Palantir, is the military industrial complex company Trump has entrusted to create a mass surveillance network on US citizens, completely against the 4th Amendment, and dwarfing the NSA spying that was exposed by Snowden.

You can garuntee any activity you do in Brave is being tracked and sent to that network.

People here up upvoting baseless conspiracies based on a braindead notice that technology is like magic.

If everything was tracked and harvested by Brave, it'd destroy them much more than the bullshit "homophobe" allegation. Just use network traffic monitors to see if it does. You think people haven't tried?

Or do you think software can covertly send data without users being able to determine?

It's open source for fucks sake. Stop with the Alex Jones tier analysis.
