Description of the issue:
I notice that Brave Browser save screenshot of page on folder /data/data/com.brave.browser/app_textures/
even the Private Tabs.
Maybe this is Chromium feature to save state for preview of tab or not? But include the private tabs where thumbnail and screenshot is disabled? Unless enbled on flags brave://flags/#incognito-screenshot
My guess is that it is used for preview for Recent apps
but with my unupdated Chrome browser
it only save “encrypted? (PKM?)” format. While with Brave Browser
it save an viewable images.
It concern me as Brave browser’s tag is:
The best privacy online
Browse privately. Search privately. And ditch Big Tech.
