    Switching to Brave from Firefox due to AI and ethical concerns seems like a lateral move at best if being generous.

      Right, I felt the same thing. Switching to Brave because Firefox "isn't ethical enough" is like switching to McDonald's because the farmer's market produce isn't organic enough.

        I got fed up with ads in search results and invasive tracking from Google.

        I've switched fully to Meta's Muse for all of my research going forward.

          You got fed up with invasive tracking so you switched to a Meta product?

            A Facebook product.

            I think they're joking.

              I hope so!
