I don't like brave because Brandon Eich (CEO, formerly with Mozilla) doesn't support gay marriage and was pushing anti-vax stuff on twitter. I don't look for this shit to titillate my tits like some folks, but when it hits me in the face I can't ignore it.
When fact checking myself I found even more controversies, but I'm not wasting time reading articles that feed a confirmation bias.
I don't like Brave because they've done dodgy things like this time and time again over the years, and each time Brandon Eich went on a marketing campaign across social media to drum up new users and drown the story out.
He's also the creator of JavaScript if that irks you any more.
