Hey brave, get ride of crypto stuff and you’ll get users back
You guy are actually building a good browser

Open a fresh install of Brave. No crypto things are happening. There's one button inviting you to enable it, which you can dismiss with 2 clicks. It will never ask again.
I wish they'd auto hide all that crap for you after you click "not interested in cryptocurrency stuff".
If they could just fix the back-button on Brave iOS so it doesn’t occasionally pick a completely different tab, I’ll be happy.
Technically, in the browser, yes. Culturally, at the organization level, no.
So there was / is a legitimate data structure which stores these affiliate links and someone accidentally used it as a source for the url auto completion?
I assume the legitimate reason to store affiliate links, are things like the widgets on the "new tab" page?
If that really was an honest mistake I'm sorry for spreading stories like this, without checking them first in more detail.
