Is Brave AI safe?
Brave AI runs a content script on every page that answers page messages with the user's stored vendor login ID.
The extension injects a script on all websites that listens for window messages without checking where they come from. Any web page can ask it to return the stored account details (openid, uid, nickname) and can also write values into the extension's local storage. The openid is the identifier the extension sends to brave.dlcircle.com.

Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 19 users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Brave AI contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
