Are you still planning on switching away from a browser that was just going to implement built-in Firefox functionality responsibly and openly? And if so, what are you going to switch to?

I would be surprised if any fork developer promised to remove a free, positive feature.

    For a browser that includes it opt-in, there's no supporting of Brave if it's kept disabled. Then if there's no wide adoption, Mozilla may remove the code altogether. Alternatively, it may choose not to pull commits from the original repo, making it completely independent from the project run by a bigot. We'll see.
