There isn’t a product in the world, even my most used and beloved, that makes me care enough to bother looking up beliefs of involved executives.

Exactly. People here need to realize that the majority of non-Western people have had enough of struggles to deal with. They're also struggling to make ends meet, let alone caring about a product executive's political views. If the product can deliver what it's supposed to do – in this case, a browser that blocks ads – they're fine with it. And the Brave browser works well on midrange Androids, which are often used in many third-world countries. Firefox and its add-ons are quite resource-intensive for midrange devices.
