The New York Times sued browser company Brave in Manhattan federal court on Monday, alleging it scraped copyrighted content and illegally distributed it to clients such as Anthropic and Perplexity, TechCrunch reported. The New York Times is seeking an injunction and damages. Separately, the Daily News, Chicago Tribune, and Orlando Sentinel filed similar lawsuits on the same day. Brave had not yet responded to requests for comment as of the report; the alleged actions are accusations made by the plaintiffs, and the report did not mention any court rulings.
