I am thinking of removing it from there. I do mention it in the disclaimers.

I found this useful resource explaining their issues - https://thelibre.news/no-really-dont-use-brave/.

If anyone else has something better, I am happy to reference it directly

Qwant is shady as well, was sending data to Bing Ads for a few years

As a French company, it has the obligation to store your IP, and their privacy policy is ridiculous
