Ex Brave employee here; what utter nonsense and utter BS -- having affiliate links when you click on the link is not a trust issue when you can see it and user clicked on it (it is a common practice for a receipt to know where you came from and it identifies no one and only identifies Brave, the organization). You are recommending Firefox who uses G-Search (default) and uses G-Analytics and thats OK? Someone paying you to write this?
