PS: "Its web results come from the independent search index of Brave." "Its results come from ... as well as from Microsoft Bing and Google." With a Scroogle-Startpage-style approach, even if privacy is supposedly protected, one still has to question why certain search results appear and others might not. The Meta principle doesn't necessarily work either, how are search results ranked in Meta searches? A former information security company named Crypto AG, based in independent Switzerland, turned out to be owned by the German Federal Intelligence Service and the CIA after all. Basically, you're in a hopeless situation when it comes to finding "good" search engines.
