By that reasoning so is uBlock Origin.

Wait is there something wrong with ublock now?

No, but it does block YouTube better than anything else. Like, if I just ran uMatrix (made by the same developer), I couldn't get YouTube to work while blocking ads, but with uBlock Origin it works perfectly.

I'm just saying that claiming Brave is affiliated with Google because it blocks their stuff is like claiming uBlock Origin is also affiliated. However, beyond that I wouldn't say Brave hold a candle to uBlock's dev.

Ah okay, I misunderstood you. Thanks for the clarification!
