On your point 3 there was a 1 time issue back in 2020 about redirect links from 1 specific site (binance.us). I know a lot of companies claim malicious things were a bug, but considering it only happened once, was restricted to one site, was fixed almost immediately after it was discovered, and had to do with auto fill settings in the address bar from people who had already used brave's affiliate links; it really does seem more like a bug. Why do you insinuate that they "keep" doing something when there is only this one instance?
Also no where in that link does it mention "selling user data" so that part seems to have come straight from you ass.
I'd address the other points and why they are pretty much meaningless when you dig into the actual stories, but I dont have the time, and trying to explain the reality of brave to Lemmy users is like trying to explain to a dog why they can't just eat all the food all the time.
But I did want to specifically call out point 3 because you literally just made shit up and a primal part of my brain can not stand dirty fucking liars who lie because they don't have any actual arguments.
