As the title suggests. I want community opinions on the Arc browser.

          • Well, there’s a good chance that most people who present technical information publicly are probably involved somewhere in the tech space. Pretty sure the owner of that site also has a disclaimer stating that he in fact works for Brave.

            More directly, is the information on that website inaccurate? Could any other person create a similar website with the same information? Has anyone?

            True facts don’t change based on who presents them. Every time I see this “oh don’t trust the Brave employee” it’s usually someone who is mad that FF isn’t the best in whatever category.

                  There is none. This is a personal project. It has been long before brave. The source code is there. All previous results are there. All methods used are there. They make it well known their current employment.

                  Oh, did I mention you can run the same tests because the whole thing is OPEN SOURCE.?

            The source code is freely available for you to run all the tests yourself. On any browser you like.

            Brave sucks. Peter Thiel can suck the corn out of my shit.

            But, the tests and results are still accurate. *based on fresh install and no config changes. (FF can be hardened well beyond what’s shown)

            As you can see in the results tor/mull/mullvad/librewolf are basically the best for all around privacy and security.

            They’re all based on FF.

            Ps: The guy was doing this long before he went to work at brave. (Maybe that’s why they hired him? Hmmm)

            Well, first, let’s stay on the topic of fact versus your possible issue of possible conflict.

            K thx bye.

          They’re saying they don’t understand open source at all. They’re saying someone must stop the highly regarded and useful personal project they’ve been working on for years prior to being hired by evil corp (it is because Peter Thiel). They’re saying they don’t know how to read the results of the tests. Etc.
