Because that is not even remotely the case as is clearly stated in the article in the first few sentences.
- longrod 4y agoThe fact that they have to explain themselves with an article speaks a lot. Was this specific method necessary? I am sure it cost them quite a bit and were the results worth it? How many people would read the article? How many people would simply run away from Brave due to this? How many people would care to research it a bit more? Privacy is such a sensitive topic for privacy-respecting people that most of the time even a little doubt blows up the ship. This was a huge risk taken by Brave and unnecessarily so because they didn't do anything extraordinary by sending people mail. Moreover, can this one article stop the negative sentiment from spreading? I don't think so.
