Brave Launches Paid, "Minimalist" Brave Origin Browser

Brave: requires 60$ for simply debloating a bloated privacy browser so that its no longer free and “you are not the product”

Brave doesn’t require 60$ for “simply debloating” Brave.

They have provided free instruction for how to “debloat” brave without paying for origin if that is something users want. See: Brave Support: How do I hide or disable features in Brave which I also linked in my previous reply

in a previous thread there is discussion about the inability to disable daily usage pings

I don’t want to “relitigate” that topic here, but from my testing, and discussion over at Brave’s community forum it seems like a UI bug more than anything else, with the report_enabled [1] configuration variable set to false regardless of user interjection or toggle appearance in browser settings.


  1. This represents the daily usage ping toggle in the configuration file. ↩︎
