Web Pioneer Legend Brendan Eich

A long time ago in a galaxy the same as this one, pointy-headed nerds built the foundation of the Internet. One of those pointed-headed nerds was the CEO of Mozilla, a co-founder of the Firefox browser and the creator of Javascript. Today he is the creator of the Brave browser, a wonderful privacy-based alternative to Chrome and the rest of the corporate browsers. His name is Brendan Eich and today he joins us to discuss the early days of the web, the mess he helped create and how he is helping to clean it up and lead us into a decentralized web 3 world. Join us for a discussion with this Brave legend on our “pioneers get all the arrows” episode #653 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
