  Oh for sure. The manual down ranking of Russian search results didn’t really bother me, but the undisclosed inability to block Microsoft tracking in their browser was enough to have me avoid it going forward. Not a good look, especially when there are already better options in the space.

    I'm only using Brave because it was highest rated in terms of privacy (don't quote me, I saw it on a video by SomeOrdinaryGamers). What would you say is a better option to Brave?

    I've tried Firefox and Opera so far.

      So I tend to agree with the PrivacyGuides.org Team on this one. I’ll break it down slightly differently though. Brave isn’t BAD per se, but I strongly prefer not using a Chromium based browser unless it’s 100% necessary.

      Most private and secure but frustrating to use: Tor Browser

      Private and secure, still frustrating for daily use: Mullvad Browser

      Able to be private and secure, defaults aren’t perfect. Firefox + uBlock Origin

      Private and secure by default, potentially slowly updates and a smaller team might impact security. LibreWolf

      Chromium Based Browser with good Security and Privacy, defaults aren’t perfect: Brave

      Chromium Based Browser with good privacy, but potentially slow updates and a smaller team. Ungoogled Chromium + uBlock Origin
