Overall, no. Compared to Apple, Google, and Microsoft? Yes.
Trust isn't a sliding scale, bro. If you have reason to distrust slightly, you still have a reason to distrust. You're just trying to convince yourself one form of a breach of trust isn't as bad as another.
And honestly, size of the company has little to do with it overall: Brave has been verrrrrrrry fucking shady.
It absolutely is a sliding scale, which is why you trust some people more than others. You have friends you can trust with some things and not others. Same thing with companies. I realize their somewhat shady but a far cry better than those I mentioned.
