Privacy & Freedom in the Information Age www.reddit.com

I'd like to share this as many people on this sub recommend brave browser and they recently did a very scummy move.


So i opened task manager recently and found something interesting..


Apparently Brave browser installed "Brave V*N Wireguard Service" which runs and is enabled to start on pc startup.


I have not been notified of this at all, had i not checked task manager i would have no idea it was there.


This is obviously extremely scummy behaviour akin …

brave brave browser browser consent found manager people privacy service share start startup task wireguard
