reverse-proxy for access to their server - they claim they have no records of individual IP that way

Nobody records your IP when you confess your sins to a priest either. The things you say in these contexts are self-doxxing. Never trust AI privacy guarantees!

Especially from Brave. I like and use their mobile browser, but at one point their useragent had my fucking phone model imprinted in it (these days it only betrays that my phone is running Android 9). Their idea of "privacy" is a joke.

That was pretty standard among browsers a couple years ago.

Among the self proclaimed privacy first ones as well apparently.
