Reddit privacy moderators recently censored this content over a day after it was posted. IMO the reason is suspicious.

(There are no subreddit rules banning “political propaganda” or “character assassination.” Nor does this comment appear to rise to either of those accusations: other non-removed comments back up the removed one.)
Brave is the chic-fil-a of web browsers.
Removed by mod
Its the web browser that cuts babies in half, burns them, and sells their charred, lifeless bodies on a bun to homophobes for lunch?
I didn’t know chic-fil-a was so metal.
What does the name mean? It’s right there.
Metal isn’t very homophobic. Metal heads are some of the most accepting and nice subcultures I know, next to maybe furries.
I mean most of the metal attire we stole from our Queer Metal Daddy, Lord Rob Halford.
Eich is a homophobe, cryptobro and the inventor of javascript.
All of these are unforgivable.
Is Eich a homophobe?
Yes. He donated to an anti-gay-marraige org.
Funny thing so does thiel, practically the gop.
Oh man. That sucks. What a dick.
Which proves my point. They don’t really care about wedge issued (Peter Thiel isn’t cis het), they just use them to drive the wedge between the masses.
Criticism of dear leaders will not be tolerated on a corpo platform hence why people who actually care to have discussions end up here.
The comments that have been removed here – and in several other places – are generally focused around billionaires or other people endorsed by the Trump regime. The pattern is pretty obvious in the removed comments, but there’s no such pattern in the ones that are still up, because they often address the same billionaires.
(I’ve also noticed that several posts regarding Flock cameras have been deleted for similar suspicious reasons, but larger ones have been allowed to stay up.)
I always had a feeling that palce was compromised.
I guess my gut feeling was not wrong few years back.
You can talk about privacy as long as you ain’t hurting daddy’ profit 🤡
Spez lapdogs so fucking hard it’s beyond sad. Dude legit does not realise that there is no magical number of gobbled cocks that will gain him entrance to The Club
What??!!?? That Peter Thiel? Could you give me a link about that?
From a non-deleted comment on that thread:
Yup, Brave is financed in part by Peter Thiel’s founders fund (and a bunch of other shady venture capitalists) which has funded Palantir and others.
Others also link to a couple videos about Thiel to what I presume was somebody asking about him.
Thanks for the info, Brave has just fallen to the Chrome level for me now
Anyone know any alternatives on iPhone they vould recommend?
Firefox. Vivaldi if you want to stay with a Chromium-based browser.
Nothing is Chromium-based on iPhone.
lmao, of course he is. I’ve been bashing Brave since Ethereum markets took off and they did their shitcoin. Quit blocking ads with grifter software trash like Brave.
preach
Imagine being so fucking ignorant that you actually liked Brave even before finding out Thiel was involved. Eich’s involvement was already enough (fuck that guy for inflicting Javascript on the world), let alone the fact that its business model is a protection racket wrapped in a crypto scam.
(Not trying to downplay Eich’s bigotry, BTW, just trying to raise awareness of all the other underappreciated ways that he sucks.)
Eeeep I am one of those ignorant people. Had no idea. Funny enough I switched back to Firefox a few weeks ago for other reasons.
Brave always reeked of VC money with all the promotion they do. It genuinely turns me off whenever I see supposed “for the community” software with heavy marketing.
What’s his bigotry?
He’s publicly against same-sex marriage and was a firm supporter of Proposition 8, an amendment to the California Constitution defining marriage as valid only between a man and a woman, which was later overturned in federal court.
Wow that’s fucked, yikes.

Damn. So, assuming it’s true, what would be a suitable alternative? Is Firefox compromised or nah?
Firefox is definitely a better browser than Brave (which has a history that’s riddled with controversy), but there are a couple forks of it that intentionally make it more private too.
But for practical purposes, installing Firefox and disabling Telemetry is more than acceptable for the average person!
Thanks a lot for the tip!
Librewolf & Waterfox are hardened firefox but if you are more on focused on looks i think Zen is better
Zen had some really concerning security/privacy concerns recently, which called into the question the competence of the creator, so I’d be wary of it.
Community reports of other privacy concerns being ignored
that really is very concerning
Even if Firefox were compromised by megalomaniacal shitheads, it would still be worth picking over any Chromium-based browser because every Chromium-based browser helps cement Google’s hegemony over web standards.
Isn’t r/privacy taken over by conservatives
Thiel has his creepy hands everywhere nowadays. Doesn’t surprise me the least bit.
Especially his boy toy fell out of a multistory building(sound familiar) under suspicious circumstances last year, it barely made the news outside of Florida and was on Reddit for one day. When he start expressing concerns about thiels anti lgbti- support via the gop. Thiel definitely don’t want the news to be widespread.
TIL. I hope that evil fucker dies (of natural causes, but soon, please).
Im okay if he dies in a car crash, ‘act of god’, falling into a centrifuge, being on an elon musk rocket, private billionaire submarine, cthulu breaching the walls of reality, shredded by an angry ghost, eaten by giant possibly magic possibly engineered spiders.
There are a lot of ways it woukd be cool for him to die.
Hell; I’d be pretty psyched about some of these for me.
Die sooner with any cause

Do we do Reddit here? Because I can post shit load of my posts and comments being removed due to them being critical of Israel - and that was well before the current genocide chapter. Mods there are awful and admins are even worse.
Reddit is the corporate shill of the internet. The shareholders, did you ever think of them when you criticized Israel?
😂
Do we do Reddit here?
Unfortunately
