LOL, about half the points in the article are struck through now. Yet another "journalist" who doesn't understand how anything works getting angry how they way they imagine it works.
That's some quality reporting "stackdiary".
Lol, I'm glad he at least included the full email response from them. You can tell he's a little salty and still misinterpreting things when you read about how he took their response to the Search Crawler part.
I'm too stupid to get any of this so... Can I continue using Brave or should I look for alternatives?
This article shouldn't affect Brave users themselves.
The content of the article deals with issues that only website owners/publishers have to be salty about. Much of what's left comes down to the legal grey area of how to treat LLMs like ChatGPT and whether they're allowed to scrape websites for training data or not.
