I'm not convinced about the Brave business model but the browser is a shit ton better than Chrome.

As I don't use it I can't really give much of a review. I have read on here it has built in Tor which is like a VPN and you can access the Dark Web (scary words for not so scary a thing). I use Tor myself for a few things, like accessing my Proton Mail. The Tor system has never been broken for a criminal prosecution. Anyone who has been caught for a cybercrime through Tor gave themselves away outside of Tor - one bomb threat was just a timing thing "logged off the Uni network [placed bomb threat on Tor], logged back into Uni network"
