I consider every browser using chromium as a backend -- especially those that started with another backend and then switch to chromium -- as a traitor to the Internet.
They have no standing especially if they purport to care about things like privacy.
> Update: As of v1.81, we host the following Manifest V2 (MV2) extensions on Brave’s backend: AdGuard, uBO, uMatrix, NoScript. These extensions operate independently from the equivalent versions that are currently present on the Chrome Web Store, and have to be downloaded separately
You can panic then, powerusers.
Does that mean existing uBlock Origin users should re-download the extension ? Confusing instructions...

Look I get it. This is all they can say. But it's frankly disingenuous. What about the browser extensions they don't and probably never will incorporate, like the tools to use archive sites?
It's reductive to "only run the things we wrote directly"
