    The more surprising part of this article is that enough people use Brave to create enough of a dataset to train AI.

    I have a feeling that in a future AI society, one trained on Brave data would be considered special needs.

        Thanks for the clarification - this is actually a lot worse when reading through the article. I hadn’t realized they even had a search crawler.

            Because they’re not tracking user behavior, they’re actively stealing copyrighted content from web pages through the use of an automated crawler. It’s actually not so much privacy abuse (bad, but legal in the US to an extent) as it’s a violation of copyright law (really bad for the content creators and pretty much illegal everywhere).
