As a search engine, it changed my new tab without my consent.

Awesome extension. I love that Brave uses its own independent search index instead of just copying Bing or Google. The UI is clean, it's fast, and there are no hidden trackers. Seamless integration with Firefox. 5 stars!

Have some data trackers why

I can't type brave in the url box without triggering the brave search keyword. I can't bypass it and I believe like every other search engine the shortcut keyword should be like @brave and not brave.

I've been using Brave Search for several years now. It is the best independent and alternative search engine - with privacy. I was so tired of Google's tracking.
