by tuxsudo (tux.pizza) When you want to search for something on the internet, do you say, “Bing it” or “Yahoo! it”? Of course not. You say “Google It,” right? Google has become a verb in our language. But Google is not a good company. Rather, Google is a creepy, data-hungry, people-manipulating, government-colluding monster. If you care about freedom and privacy, you should distance yourself from every one of Google’s products.
Hi, my name is rebecca and I agree something is going on. I think it may have already started. Today people started calling me by a new name. I've tried posting about it on my company's site but haven't received a response. I'm not really sure what to do about it. Thanks! Rebecca
I use Brave as my bowser. However, I must use Chrome to logon to my bank information. I haven't tried accessing my back via micro Edge. I don't like Edge but maybe I should give it another try.
I called my bank several times, when I had trouble loging in, and finally I got someone without an accent and the first thing he asked was who I used as a browers. My bank has too many fire walls for Brave.
I also set up Brave VPN. I'm NOT computer savy and the VPN had several choices of countries with fast connection. I clicked on Japan, Netherlands and the United states. Every other day or two I have to disconect Japan & Netherlands and connect with the U.S. I don't know how to completely eliminate the foreign countries so that I don't run into "We don't have that url here". That's how I find out my connection swithed to a foreign country. I thought, "Cool, I can use a foreign country for my browsing" NOT! Like I said, I'm not up on cumputer lingo at all.
Does anyone know the secrect to eliminating foreign the foreign counties from Brave VPN?
Yelp! I've got brave and made it my default browser on my phone! I've set settings to strict and I've completely blocked Google’s ads from showing up in my email. I've still got a Google phone however and I'm looking into getting an Above phone. I watch TV shows on my phone and I don't get any commercials at all, that's extremely pleasant! I watch TV on the brave browser and sometimes I do go to the Firefox browser which I like too because you can delete your searching data, cookies, history! I also have Proton VPN! I've done pretty good about getting private and I don't touch Chrome or Google search for anything! But I'm sure I'm not completely 100% private with using a Google phone but Glenn you have taught me alot about how to increase my privacy and become anonymous and stopping tracking.

Your commitment is admirable.
The linux community is really into using their versions of google wallet and phones in the fight for privacy.
Thanks for the commitment. Examples help a lot.
You're welcome 😊
Yes. The Brave Browser is built on the open-source Chromium Web core and our own client code is released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. - Brave
Is this the browsers for beginners? Is there another source you can recommend that is not Chromium.
Does it matter?
