Brave search premium asked me to enter my email. Seems like it requires an account.
Regardless, there’s nothing to stop Mullvad, Brave, Kagi, or any other company from logging and doing attribution. Trust is part of the equation.

I'd like to mention that when you subscribe to Brave Search premium, it is completely decoupled from the searches you then make (no way for us to link your email to your searches) by relying on blinded tokens to prove that you are premium, but without the backend knowing which account (and using one new token per search in order to avoid being able to build search sessions).
I hope that helps,
