Monitoring private data in the name of safety is a myth, because it enables anyone to exploit this information and weaponize it against you. It also means the app will have a responsibility to hand over your private messages if required to do so by a government subpoena.

If you want absolute anonymity while browsing, even Brave Software recommends using the Tor Browser: torproject.org/download/

That said, absolutely love that you can open a private window with Tor on Brave 🔐

Turkmenistan continues to block Tor and anti-censorship tools at a large scale. Tor bridges prove to be one of the few free alternatives to access the open internet. If you have the resources to help, please consider running bridges. How? Take a look: forum.torproject.org/t/tor-relays-h…
