As far as I'm aware, Brave is open source and this appears to be the time saved calculation on Android. https://github.com/brave/browser-android-tabs/blob/b4d565f07...

Interesting. I (like others here, apparently) assumed that the time saved number was based on various tracking scripts that weren't downloaded, but if this is the relevant code, looks like it's just tracking parallel requests.

You know, I think you're right. The formula from the PR that implemented "Est. Time Saved" appears to be (trackers + ads blocked) * 50ms
