- Brave sells Origin to strip added features—a $60 one-time fee (free on Linux).
- Origin removes email aliases, Leo AI, VPN, Wallet, Speedreader, and more via a toggleable panel or standalone client.
- You can buy Origin on Brave Premium or enable the panel at brave://settings/system.



Funny - are there any other known instances in the history of software where you have to pay extra to remove actual features?
Also, don’t use Brave.
I’ll keep using it. It’s the best browser out there, FF is terrible and is managed by a shitty, corrupt company which deserves to disappear.
This has to be a joke right…
Like I can’t imagine any way this could be serious, cause brave literally inserted referral codes to steal money from creators. They also inject ads. Like… you have to be making a joke. There’s no way you’re serious.
The only joke here is the crap browser that FF is. Bye.
