Brave adds an alias to the browser, trying to strengthen its consistent emphasis on privacy. In the future, when they register or fill in their mailboxes on the website, the user may not submit the personal mailbox directly, but use an alias address generated by the browser.
Call an alias directly upon registration
This feature requires the registration of a Brave account and binding a real mailbox. When you log in the browser, you can see the bullet window option using an alias of the mailbox when you click on the mailbox input box on the web page; if the bullet window does not appear, you can also call through the right-click menu.
Upon completion, the website received an alias address rather than the user ' s real mailbox. Messages sent to that aliases are forwarded to the user's bound main mailbox.
Brave's on privacy.
According to Brava, the website usually uses the address of the mailbox as a personal identification information and uses it as a basis for advertising. It was mentioned that advertising technology companies such as Meta may also track browsing or purchase records by matching the mailboxes left by users on retail websites with the one they hold.
Brave says that the goal of the new function is to reduce this type of tracking. The company indicated that it would not read e-mail messages sent to an alias mailbox, but would only filter spam and viruses before forwarding. The mail will be deleted from the Bravo server after forwarding.
First five free aliases
Bravo also indicated that the data in the user account would be stored in static encryption. If the user adds a comment to an alias, the contents are defaulted to be stored only in the local device; only when the synchronisation is on will the comments be synchronized and encrypted to the end.
However, due to the fact that the function is on line, Bravo cautions that the initial part of the forward mail may be miscalculated as spam by the main mailbox. This situation is expected to improve as Brave develops its credibility as a mail service provider.
Now, Brave provides users with 5 free mailbox aliases. The company stated that future subscribers to the Premium programme would receive more aliases.
