There were 3 points:
-
CEO is a dick: not enough of a reason
-
Swapping ads: I have ads disabled anyways so what do I care. If I did care I wouldn't block ads in the first place
3.1. Promoting/friendships with crypto: ¯_(ツ)_/¯
3.2. Privacy leak: it happens ¯_(ツ)_/¯
3.3. Partnering with weird people: ¯_(ツ)_/¯
3.4. IS AN ADVERTISING PLATFORM: ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I've been using brave for over a year. I can't remember the last time I saw an ad on my screen. Now there might very well have been some But I have no memory of it.
Why was appointing Eich as CEO so controversial? It's because he donated $1,000 in support of California's Proposition 8 in 2008, which was a proposed amendment to California's state constitution to ban same-sex marriage.
Besides this I cannot find another good reason not to use brave. Nobody point to a specific line of code that ruins privacy, not enough reasons.
The cake is a lie
And there's the limiting factor. Since there's no way to reverse capital punishment like you can just take someone out of jail; A jury has to have absolutly no doubt and no more possible questions before deciding that this criminal can or can't change. The bar for capital punishment should the 1000 times higher than the next highest bar. It is because of my stance that I'm upset at how often people are condemed to death, capital punishment is being used too loosely and if society isn't capable of dispationatly executing a failed human and instead choose to take their feelings out on the bad guy then captial punishment should be banned.
I don't see what's wrong with acknowledging the fact that some humans are objectivly failures and have no place being compared to the average person. There aren't that many of them, most people (like 98%) are good people and will never beable to be judged like this because noone can possibly be holier than everyone. It's not a hard stance, its a system of value that acknowledges that some people are not actually people. It' noones fault until it can be proven to be someones fault and when it happens you have to clean up.
What about when a we decide a whole group of people aren’t people?
Ok, bear with me. It's actually as easy as not deciding that groups of people aren't people. Right? You don't have to do that, there's no rule requiring you to do it. People aren't groups and groups aren't people.
That’s happened multiple times throughout history.
We're all collectively better than those people for these simple facts:
- we don't drink the water we shit in
- we wash our hands
- we comprehend the fact that people are worth more alive than dead
A stupidly high price requires a stupidly high bar. The bar isn't high enough.
The death penalty isn't about punishing criminals.
Society as a whole decides that due to a person's actions and values they can no longer qualify as a person like the rest of us. To be a person you are required to value people's lives. There is no room for choice or debate about this matter, it doesn't matter what your religion or your heritage is, if you are a person, you're required to value the life of other people.
When failure cases like this guy and Dylan roof show up, we have to judge whether or not they're capable of valuing life and if they're not then they're not people. It's that simple. And if you're not a person, your livestock and human livestock is pretty damn worthless, so you might as well slaughter them on the spot.
Liftoff is opensource
Yeah because what Linux users on the fediverse don't realize is that most people don't find their data valuable. Bc genuinely who cares if Instagram knows that you're a dog. In fact, most people actively want other people to know the things about them that apps collect. They'll just post it on Instagram and TikTok without a second thought.
The alternative to platforms not collecting data is them charging you what your data is worth yearly. So Google might cost 20 bucks a year, Instagram my cost another 25 bucks a year. Most people would end the year with maybe 100 to 200 in "web service bills". Nobody wants another bill.
