Maybe an algorithm put it there due to relevance.

Not gonna happen. But if it does it will probably be like Youtube and Spotify so prepare to hear ads in your brain if you don't have the premium subscription.

I ask that question and you failed to answer it twice. I'm interested in how they violate my privacy. Like, the mechanisms. To say Brave products are bad in one aspect therefore they are bad in all aspects is falacy of the composition.

Thanks. For what kind of specs I should be looking when byuing a wireless product? What key words I should be looking for?

PSA: Stay away from wireless keyboards (beehaw.org)
 

I aways wondered if the communication channel between my wireless keyboard and the usb receiver-antena is secure. I never bother to reseach this. Today I figured out the practical way. I turned on my pc at work and I tried to type the first letter of my password. Nothing hapened. Then I started spamming that letter. Still nothing, until the person next to me said "my keyboard is typing all by itself". It turns out she has a wireless mouse with a seemigly identical receiver-antena usb.

The moral of the story. If it was so easy to almost leak my password unintentionally due to this flaw of wireless keyboard communication, imagine wad a bad actor can do intentionally. Why try to brute force, social engineer e.t.c. when your password can be stollen in transit from your keyboard to your pc.
