This is nothing new.
Up until ~5 years ago, hacking U2F to make it pass (smuggle?) arbitrary data was exactly how hardware wallet like those from Ledger and Trezor were communicating with websites and web extensions (like Metamask), for the lack of a better alternative. This is how hardware secured "web3" came to be.
Because brave has a questionable business model where they, on one hand, block third party ads and trackers, and on the other inject their own ads, tied to their BAT cryptocurrency (the latter part being opt-in IIRC).
They also:
- added their own affiliate codes when visiting some sites [1]
- installed VPNs without consent [2]
which also taints their privacy focused posture.

I switched to Orion[0] as a test, discovered the awesomeness of superbly integrated, native, tree style tabs, and now I'm stuck with this browser where sites I need for work are half broken. I tried Firefox with Tree Style Tab extension, but it's not nearly as good :(
An unsuspected (to me!) place for good kid friendly games, free of ads and in-app purchases or other predatory patterns, is Apple Arcade on iPad.
My 5 y/o is having great fun with the Crayola app and Cooking Mama, and, honestly, between each round, I'm waiting for an ad to pop, a nag screen to pay for stuff or review, a countdown or some other crap we're accustomed to on mobile games and no. Nothing. Just the full game and nothing else. It's a refreshing experience.
You can still use the Ledger Nano X via USB, like a Nano S.
If you're not confortable using Bluetooth, you can disable it on the device itself.
Absolutely.
Disclosure: I'm a dev at Ledger working on the desktop and mobile apps. I'm not in the hardware team nor the security team.
all the bluetooth, screen and button IO goes through an unsecure processor
On the new device, the screen and buttons are now directly wired to the ST33 secure element
The "Bibliothèque nationale de France" (national library of France) did the same kind of thing with hundreds of thousands vinyl records from their archive, including international ones published in France: http://www.bnfcollectionsonore.fr/
There's no Android phone, Google Now is running on an iPhone 5(s).
This is how the PS2, I think, was sucessfully rooted/unlocked/made-linux-run-on-it.
This was the PS3, actually.

Fortunately, there is a userstyle, aptly named "startpage clean & minimal", for fixing the ugliness.
I, somehow, missed the news about the new Blink rendering engine and thought this was about Opera supporting the <blink> tag. Phew.
The site appears to be down.
I was able to retrieve the content but not the CSS, so I made a mirror with no stylesheet (but with working comments) here : http://jsbin.com/apanuw/1
On Android, the foss client Twidere let users change the tokens in the options. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mariotaku....

I'm appalled by the comments here. The consensus seems to be that the terrible working condition of the people making our favorite gadgets doesn't matter and shouldn't get coverage because you can find even poorer conditions in the same country.
Fucking hippies lamenting over the lot of a few Chinese working 10 h/day in a toxic prison factory while they are not even totally enslaved.
Not all medications decrease libido, and depression by itself does. Thus you may actually see an increase with drugs.
