        Trust is a sliding scale. The majority of Braves code (at least for their browser) is open source, this means you should at least trust them more than companies whos products are wholly proprietary.

          Code is either open source or it’s not. Brave is not fully open source which means you have no proper way of vetting its operation.

        It absolutely is a sliding scale, which is why you trust some people more than others. You have friends you can trust with some things and not others. Same thing with companies. I realize their somewhat shady but a far cry better than those I mentioned.

        Just a general distrust of all companies because they have a habit of using my data for their own purposes.
