Release Overview - Stable Versions

Keep in mind that the official changelog website is often behind actual release versions, the website is maintained by marketing people. Also note that not every single change/issue is mentioned in the release notes, because lots of changes are done in the background e.g. filter-list changes etc.

I know that in a lot of privacy communities they recommend to use uBlock in addition to Privacy Badger. The reason for this, I believe, is the uBlock functions off of block lists while Privacy Badger functions by recognizing the behavior of trackers. Does Brave Shields only function off of block lists or should I also install privacy badger? Please correct me if I got any of those details wrong.

@geometry dash It's conceivable that privacy badger makes your fingerprint more unique, but it doesn't actually give anything more than what you can get via brave settings, as far as I'm aware.

AFAIK no, privacy badger doesnt really offer more than what you can get from brave settings and likely makes your fingerprint more unique.
