Damn. If there was ever any doubt about why you should get off chrome, this seems to put an end to that.
right but at least google will tell you. brave a lot more shady and just wont say anything or let you opt out. many examples in the past. imagine if they were anywhere near a quarter of googles size it wouldnt be pretty imo.
Padme: So then Brave isn’t going to be based on Chrome anymore, right?
Brave is a Chromium derivative, not Chrome. Can't imagine why any of this would imply they would need to stop deriving Chromium: they can develop and deploy whatever cookie policies and defaults they want.

Shed a tear for the Firefox that could have been
I certainly do. That said, I struggle to find another browser that's any better and most are worse. So I accept Firefox as the lesser evil.

Firefox is still working great for me, and I intend to keep using it for the foreseeable future. I don't know what it might take for people to migrate away from Chrome en masse, but the alternative is there.

the only two browsers, Chrome and Brave
Way more than just two chromium browsers in existence.

statistically, 50% chance, innit?
OP seems to claim 13% same / 87% opposite
I think you're making the assumption that all three data points are needed for all 87%. But obviously some people can be uniquely identified based on just {zip, date or birth}, such that gender isn't necessary.
So the distribution could e.g. be 8% same, 8% opposite, 5% both, 79% neither, and explain the original numbers without triggering the paradox.

Maintaining a very diverged fork can take even more work than building your own browser. I think they don't want to stop receiving upstream updates when the upstream is one of the biggest software projects in the world.
