Can someone explain how Brave siphoning some money from Amazon specifically impacts privacy? Does the affiliate get a list of accounts that bought something? Names? Addresses? Or does some money just show up in their account?

What information does Amazon get? That the person clicking is using Brave? They already know that from the user agent.

I, as the user, decide what affiliate link I want to use, not my browser!
