Hi, please forgive me if this seems like a “silly” question or if already answered.
I’m new to learning about informed internet usage and privacy.
I like to mask that IP but just don’t feel comfortable with my traffic going through those nasty exit nodes.
If anyone can help me with this, I’d appreciate the insight.
Many thanks
@mrpickles Short answer is Brave VPN is something different than Tor. You can use the two together if you’d like, but that’s about it. So no, Brave VPN wouldn’t use exit nodes because it wouldn’t enter Tor or anything, unless you chose to use both together.

@Saoiray is correct here.
If you’re interested, you can read more about how Tor works [in Brave] here:
When you are inside a Private Window with Tor, Brave doesn’t connect directly to a website like normal. Instead, you connect to a chain of three different computers in the volunteer-run Tor network...
Thank you for clarifying, there can be a lot of misinformation out there, hard for a newbie to navigate sometimes
