They default whitelist Google, LinkedIn, and Facebook garbage that I have to go and toggle off.

They have to do that, otherwise things like the "login with Google" buttons disappear from sites, breaking logins for many users.

I wouldn't be affected by the settings being enabled by default as I always create a local account, but I'm also not the average internet user. My parents and most of my friends would though, and those are the users Brave are trying to get to use their browser.
