Listen "Hot Topix: A Brave New World"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of The Decentralists, we discuss Brave -- a so-called “private” web browser that just blew-up its own reason to exist.Until recently, Brave was lauded as the world’s most privacy-centric browser. That is, until their hand was caught in a private cookie jar. Mike, Henry, and Chris ask:When is privacy actually private?Is free-of-cost software actually free of cost? What are the consequences when companies violate trust of customers?In hindsight, Brave’s bad behavior was easy to predict -- many of their promises were too good to be true.And just why is Peter Thiel, world-class privacy violator, funding Brave?
