Dear Brave Search Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to propose an initiative that aligns with Brave’s commitment to user privacy and security: the blacklisting of data broker domains from your search results.
As you are aware, data brokers collect and sell personal information without the consent of individuals, often leading to significant privacy violations. By taking a stand against these practices, Brave Search can further solidify its position as a leader in the privacy-focused search engine space.
I believe that implementing a blacklist of known data broker domains would not only protect users from unwanted tracking and data collection but also raise awareness about the importance of privacy in the digital age. This action could serve as a powerful statement against the data broker industry and automatically protect users personal information from search index by default.
I appreciate the efforts Brave has already made in promoting privacy and security, and I believe that this additional step could further enhance the user experience and trust in your platform.
Below is a list of Data Broker domains that could be added to a blacklist to not crawl and to de-index from Brave Search.
