Nonsense. This naive idea that Brave innocuously looks at user's traffic patterns.

Google owns 95% of the market in most Western markets. There's no "blatantly false" about that.

They scrape search engine results and present them as their own.

Do 10,000 searches on Google and Brave and you'll see how similar they are. It's as simple as that, scraping by sleight of hand.

Why can't they be a normal search engine - because they need to scrape others. Simples.

I had a discussion about this on Twitter with Brendan Eich. He became hostile very quickly. He is not a very nice person.

I would expect most people today find interesting content via social media, and not search engines.
