Expected result:

first screen:
"Standard Protection" text remove:
If a site tries to steal your password, or when you download a harmful file, Brave may also send URLs, including bits of page content, to Safe Browsing.

"No Protection" text should read (basically remove the second sentence):
Does not protect you against dangerous websites, downloads, and extensions.

"Safe Browsing" text should read when on (basically remove the second sentence. No change in text if Safe browsing is off):
Standard protection is on.

Also, we should remove this bit from Standard Protection:

If a site tries to steal your password, or when you download a harmful file, Brave may also send URLs, including bits of page content, to Safe Browsing.

since we disable that in Brave.

@rebron @fmarier is the part in the box that says Checks URLs with a list of unsafe sites stored in Brave accurate? Is there a list of unsafe sites stored somewhere?

@LaurenWags Yes, that part is accurate. The list is stored here:

$ ls ~/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser-Beta/Safe\ Browsing
ChromeExtMalware.store  UrlBilling.store  UrlMalware.store  UrlUws.store
IpMalware.store         UrlMalBin.store   UrlSoceng.store

great, thanks for clarifying @fmarier!

Requires build higher than 1.15.69. Marked it as QA/Blocked till we get a new build.
