I just installed Brave on my Ubuntu OS on my laptop to replace Chrome. It is running better than chrome was so far. Is there a way to setup Brave to safeguard against some of things mentioned or should I go with something like DuckDuckGo instead?

That is quite the vault, thanks for sharing. I’m not sure how much time I will have to dig into it all but will try. Who do feel are your most reliable sources of information?
