According to this, if you search twice across Brave Search and a different search engine, Brave (the browser) will scrape the first page of results for the second query, and send it to Brave, in addition to which links you click on, on that page. Curious to hear people's thoughts on this-- it's claimed to be anonymized, but I personally wouldn't be okay with this being collected. Any Brave users, have you been told that this is happening?

Record linkage is the ability to know that multiple data elements, e.g. messages or records, come from the same user. This linkage leads to sessions, and these sessions are very dangerous with regards to privacy.
