Brave Detection Block BDB (chrome extension):

BEWARE this extension will remove access to window.navigator.braveSolana to prevent any possibility of detecting you run brave, this might affect brave wallet by rendering it unusable please use a wallet that doesn't leave potential fingerprints. I wrote one open-source implementation of EVM wallet here that does ZERO tracking that you can check out Clear EVM Wallet.

BDB LOGO

Brave is a good privacy browser despite that it has some features that break some privacy assurances.

One of them is an official method for a website to detect you are running brave.

This method involves a custom property on the navigator object, accessible at window.navigator.brave or window.navigator.braveSolana.

This is probably a point where marketing and data collection collides with any privacy concerns.

This extension will block access to that property and make it impossible to detect if you are running Brave browser.

Download from Chrome-Store(only download if you are running Brave):
