Translate feature never works. I set it to translate automatically instead it offers translation in the toolbar and I have to click to translate. It properly detects the source language, just it does not translate automatically. I can’t believe that there are so many reports about the translate and it is not fixed yet.
There is no automatic translation in Brave anymore, it was disabled by Brave team months ago, and who knows when they will re-enable it.

## Description
Temporarily disable auto translate in Brave Translate by hiding the ui checkbox and menu option as well as disabling the setting for those who have previously checked the setting to on.
Place auto translate feature behind a flag that where rollout of the feature can be controlled via griffin.
## Expected result:
1. Visit a page that invokes a Brave Translate
2. Ensure the checkbox and options to translate are not available.
## Current result:

## Other Additional Information:

## Miscellaneous Information:
You can start Brave with --enable-features=BraveEnableAutoTranslate and I think it should still work.
Brave Team Disabled it:
but they never added the flag to enable it or control it, and they never added the option to do it from the UI like it seems they would have done based on this:
Anyway, you can enable it back if you start brave with --enable-features=BraveEnableAutoTranslate
But for example, they roll features with ‘variations’ and example, my brave://version will say BraveAutoTranslateStudy:AutoTranslateDisabled
and not much to do, it is mean to be this way, for now, at least.
A…
It’s the same case as when I talked about it months ago in January.
