Brave was founded by Brendan Eich, as his next thing after departing Mozilla. Many of us may not agree with his views on marriage equality (or at least his past actions), but I believe over the years he has demonstrated a strong commitment to online privacy.

Personally, I'm glad someone is trying to figure out how websites can derive revenue through privacy-respecting microtransactions instead of the current ad model, and I hope they can make it work.
