Using Private windows, even with Tor, probably won't stop them from knowing which sites you've visited. If your employer administers your device they might also keep track of what you do with it.
If a site relies on a feature which would reveal your real IP address or make you much easier to recognize when you’re not using Tor, that site might not work at all because we’d rather be safe than sorry. Most often they’ll just keep asking you to prove you’re human. Some sites will treat you very differently because of this.
That said, since your data goes through a lot of relays, it's slow, so you'll experience a more sluggish internet than usual. But they can tell that the connection is being shuffled around by Tor because the list of Tor computers isn’t a secret. Brave does NOT implement most of the privacy protections from Tor Browser.įrom the perspective of the websites you visit, it looks like your connection is coming from that last Tor computer - sites don’t learn your real IP address. Note that Private Windows with Tor Connectivity in Brave are just regular private windows that use Tor as a proxy. And those two don’t even talk to each other because there’s another computer in the middle! Between those three Tor computers, only one knows where your connection is really coming from and only one knows where it’s really going. Instead, you connect to a chain of three different computers in the volunteer-run Tor network, one after another, and only then to the website you’re visiting. When you are inside a Private Window with Tor, Brave doesn’t connect directly to a website like normal.
