To follow-on from what Crow Bar says . . . Brave has the option of creating a Private window with Tor.
I do not claim to be a security specialist, but I am a little suspicious of Tor . . . it was funded by the US Navy Office of Naval Research and DARPA. Because of its source of funding, and potential influence, I wonder whether there is an unobserved backdoor, or whether the Tor “portals” are really hosted by US “intelligence”.
These are not “facts”; just my suspicions.

Internet was invented by same group. Tor to be safe you need more that just browser using a tor “sock” helps.
Some of the other ways is sharing email accounts from high privacy area… Switzerland is not safe Iceland is.
You never send mail just log in and add to a “draft” hence talking to each other and deleting old drafts. To add to this multi accounts and you get picture. Using tor on top it’s never impossible but you really had to piss someone off in high place to deserve that kind of interest and computing time.

Agreed.
I learned only recently that all email traffic BETWEEN servers is in plain text, in order to comply with the RFC standards on email. It is only your link to/from the email server which MIGHT be encrypted.
Therefore, if you are not emailing someone on the same server as you are, it is guaranteed to be in plain text.

Who would have thought that we would be looking at snail-mail as a more secure means of communication.
Anyone remember how to encode using books, runes and offset lists? Ya, it’s old.
