I like brave. I don’t care if they make a buck or two as long as I get where I’m going, safely and without invasion of my machine and personal stuff. I wanted a browser independant of google and microsoft, and I got it. I don’t like tracking and I don’t like that I can’t add a privacy software to it that I like. I can’t think of the name of it...u origin or something to that effect.

But one thing I do love is that I don’t have to endure the ads in utube vids. A good part of the reason for not watching tv has is advertizing. I hate advertising! If I want something I know how to search for it. I don’t even read magazines anymore because advertising is so out of control.

I like brave better than anything else I’ve used out there.

We have a DVR and record all the movies we want to watch so that we can skip through commercials- TV is nice to watch again thanks to DVR-

Commercials used to be about every 1/2 or 20 minutes or so, and only a couple of short ones- now they seem to play them every 10 minutes or so, and they just go on and on and on, AND as if that’s not bad enough, when the show comes back on, they pop up smaller advertisements- smaller commercials, in a small box in lower right, or left- covering up parts of the screen, so that you miss key stuff- They are running advertisements WHILE you are watching the very short 10 minutes of program between commercials now- it’s infuriating! but at least i can skip through regular commercials now-

It’s getting to hte point where we’re paying nearly $100 a month to watch commercials-
