The source code is freely available for you to run all the tests yourself. On any browser you like.

Brave sucks. Peter Thiel can suck the corn out of my shit.

But, the tests and results are still accurate. *based on fresh install and no config changes. (FF can be hardened well beyond what's shown)

As you can see in the results tor/mull/mullvad/librewolf are basically the best for all around privacy and security.

They're all based on FF.

Ps: The guy was doing this long before he went to work at brave. (Maybe that's why they hired him? Hmmm)
