Brave is an ad company. Use a privacy-centric browser like hardened firefox, librewolf, or ungoogled chromium.

Edit: added a comma

You’d need a very good reason to not use Firefox given that it’s all that stands against a Google monopoly on web standards. I was using a Chromium-based browser myself until Opera and Microsoft both abandoned their own browser engines - after that I couldn’t possibly justify not supporting Firefox.

I have made an entire post detailing (some) of the reasons why you shouldn’t use Brave.
