Ahh yes, I remember that:
I have no idea. 
Just checked. Brave is open-source so I'm sure it would be all over the web if they're tracking. So for me it's (mostly) resolved. (I still don't know how they make their money. Ads are NOT a money-maker these days (unless you've got enough)!)
You said it well, @triantares:
Oh, just remembered!
They also have support for Tor in private browsing mode....something to look into???
