It’s true Vivaldi is not free open source, the code is owned by Vivaldi however, the source code is freely available to audit which is the main security benefit you would get from a FOSS browser like Brave and Firefox. It is plainly not spyware.
Yes there is the security risk that someone might find an exploit in the source code, and if Vivaldi is notified, users would have to wait for Vivaldi to fix it. As opposed to a third party potentially issuing a patch quicker.
But this is also basically true for Firefox and Brave. If a security flaw is found it’s more than likely going to be the Firefox or Brave team that fixes it first.
Yeah this is not really data that affects privacy. Literally none of it can be used for advertising and half of it is literally required for it so the basic functions of an online game and the rest is catch cheaters.
Elon musk has a to thing for having many kids with women as quickly as possible. He had twins with his first wife via IVF followed by triplets with IVF (which kind of has uncomfy implications if you think about it). Then had a kid with Grimes and then another kid with her via surrogate while separated. And weeks before the surrogate kid was born he had twins with the exec he was having an affair with. It’s really weird.
