Here: https://web.archive.org/web/20200131173824/https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18734999 is a thread discussing the issue. UPDATE: more shady shit from these guys has surfaced. For example, not only do they have sponsored backgrounds (https://brave.com/introducing-sponsored-images-in-brave/)) (recall Mozilla's Directory Tiles?) in their New Tab page but they were also earning big money (https://archive.vn/cAGpe)) from the included affiliate links without telling you (this is illegal and they've locked the convo as expected)! More recently, they were caught rewriting typed web addresses (https://nitter.net/cryptonator1337/status/1269594587716374528)) to add referrals for various partners. Brave Browser also has auto-updates (archive) that cannot be disabled which is extremely malicious (complete with a closed topic, of course - in a Mozilla-esque fashion). The only real reason to use Brave is their so-called Brave Rewards program with which you can earn their Basic Attention Tokens in exchange for watching ads (displayed as system notifications). Here's the catch: to pay out their BATshit tokens, you need an account on Uphold, whose Privacy Policy states this:

"To verify your identity, we collect your name, address, phone, email, and other similar information. We may also require you to provide additional Personal Data for verification purposes, including your date of birth, taxpayer or government identification number, or a copy of your government-issued identification"

Facebook tier surveillance. But wait, it's not over:

"We may obtain information from affiliated and non-affiliated third parties, such as credit bureaus, identity verification services, and other screening services to verify that you are eligible to use our Services, and will associate that information with the information we collected from you."
