Amazing how aggressive Brave is at spinning PR. Anything to protect your advertising revenue and shitcoin. How much $$$$ is enough for your people? Atypical Silicon Valley greed that 80% of the flyover zone of the US is tired of.
That ghacks post happened and already had their devs and known Brave workers commenting.
Too bad Brave isn't as aggressive about security, exposing customers, risk mitigation, etc. Took a month to patch this. Untold number of people, sites, etc. exposed. You should be liable for that as well as the leak. All created because of your ad shit. See dev notes.
It's is NOT a feature to bundle a half a$$ed lousy implementation of Tor browser functionality. Then claim it isn't a replacement. Then claim it isn't suitable for absolute anonymity. At best the feature is a novelty for lazy end users and to capture more usage data for those too unaware to use a site like Tor2Web. I sure wish the Tor developers would speak up about what Brave did and continues to do.
If anyone should know better, it is Yan Zhu, Brave's head of security. How many people has Yan knew where security mattered and subsequent unearthing of them resulted in death and long detention?
Yan, this isn't a game friend. Brave you people aren't. You are inept, short sighted and dangerous to people exercising free speech and free thought in oppressive environments. That includes in the ever problematic United States, China, etc.
Solution, remove Tor functionality from your browser. How many people need to be detained, how many imprisoned, how many dare I say killed due to your negligent leaking?

I agree. Braves tor is not private.
Brave browser have many fingerprint more than Firefox and Tor browser. Other Chromium browser too. (We can check it on fingerprint test site.)
