And now for the obvious follow-up question: if you turn off analytics, including the so-called “privacy preserving analytics,” what’s it calling an analytics service for?!
Either this is user error, or Brave is having yet another “oopsie” that’s a little too convenient to be chocked up to accident

FWIW by default Brave not only pulls custom background images, but also paid background images.
But the URL doesn’t suggest they’re sending you those, it looks more like they’re receiving data from you…
