I can never trust them again after they got caught injection their own affiliate codes in URLs
When people complained, they removed it and apologized.
Is it that much worse than this?
At least Firefox wasn't nefarious even if it was a dumb idea.
How is it nefarious?
I think Brave redirecting URL's to affiliate links would fit under the umbrella of being nefarious.
Ok... But why?
I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to ask?
