Yeah if it's the comment chain that I think they're referring to, I believe it came down to Mozilla "being in bed with Google" because Google is the default search engine.

I'll take the default search engine being Google over things like affiliate links being hijacked, but maybe I'm crazy for taking that position.

Typical Brave user hating google while using chrome with preinstalled extensions. Everything about that browser is the opposite of what it should be. Same with the users.
