It costs $200 to get a certificate from Microsoft to sign as many software as you want. Brave has more than $100M/yr revenue. Please put more efforts in your anti-Microsoft rhetoric.

I see that you're trying to frame it as a "gotcha", but they've always said that those features were to generate revenue. And this news isn't any different, literally the first line: Brave Origin is a minimali
