Where does it say that it was an accident?
- contact9879 3y agoit's an issue opened by brave's vp noting that the current behaviour should be corrected
- dewey 3y agoThat doesn't mean it was an accident, it could just mean that they realized it's a problem. Especially as this issue was opened after this HN submission got posted.
- gtvwill 3y agoThey realized they were gonna get bad looks for it so they covered that shiz up as if it were a mistake. Marketing damage control.
- belthesar 3y agoIssue opened 3 hours ago, thread posted 2 hours ago. I look at Brave with skepticism as one should with a company that flirts with crypto, but in giving them a fair shake, it's important to keep the facts straight. That said, in keeping the facts straight, an issue opened a week ago citing this as a problem was closed in favor of the one opened by the Brave VP.
- MichaelZuo 3y ago> That said, in keeping the facts straight, an issue opened a week ago citing this as a problem was closed in favor of the one opened by the Brave VP. That seems somewhat shady, unless there was a credible explanation?
- jukiewalsh 3y agoIt’s a publicly viewable GitHub issue that people can still navigate to or comment on, it’s not like it was scrubbed. It’s surely a PR move to show they’re on top of it but not anything to read into in my opinion.
- MichaelZuo 3y ago'Show they're on top of it' by closing their own employee's report from a week ago without explanation? If anything, by leaving it open that would have advertised how attentive their employees are.
