Always amazes me when people who are in the queer community, or consider themselves an ally run Brave browser.
Brave is run by Brendan Eich, former CEO of Mozilla.
Never forget, he opposed gay marriage, and donated to Prop 8 to limit marriage to heterosexuals in California. He held this belief firmly and after much outrage he resigned and then went on to form Brave.
Surely, the browser is named "Brave" because he believes he was "brave" for standing up for bigotry.
