Brave Browser Leak

From what I gather, the info that was leaked was anything searched for with the TOR alternative that Brave uses.

This was due to how the ad-blocker works.

So, anything searched for on the dark web was visible to your provider.

This is exactly what TOR is supposed to prevent.

The only thing 'brave' about Brave are the people that use it and think it is secure, lol.

I tried it once of my old PC, I did not like it one bit, kept piling up several different issues.
