This title should be changed. The user is clearly on a mission to defame Brave. The title does not match the GitHub post.

This post here by JamesTheHacker is slander at best.

I see posts attacking the messenger quite often whenever someone points out yet another cryptocurrency scam. Can you respond to the actual content of the thread?

Brave isn't actively scamming anyone. You have to sign up and put your own money in the pot with etoro for anything to get a cut.

If you're willynilly giving people money for complex financial instrument's, you probably shouldn't have control of your own money.

That's a very "brave" position. We will show you ads without following laws of the land (Ctrl-F "FTC" in the github thread). If the user falls for our unlawlful ads, then it's the user that's stupid?

I understand that Brave is supposed to show the affiliate disclaimer. Which they should.

But is etoro an illegal company?
