> but 'selling' that to people at danger that depends on that tech for safety is huge red flag

The vast majority of users do not need tor for personal safety, therefore avoiding brave because of this issue is a non-sequitur for most people. Ublock origin is great, but brave is one of the only solutions that is giving a legitimate attempt at solving the root issues in a pragmatic manner. Everything else (including ublock origin, as good as it is) is just cat and mouse.
