## Description
Top sites visited and privacy stats widget are still viewable … and cannot be removed/stopped. They are not the ones seen on a normal New Tab Page by default. From New Settings/Newtabpage/, I turned off sponsored images and background images and cancelled all 3 widgets from Widget stack for full back screen experience.
But on the newly configured new tab page were these two widgets which would not budge off no matter what. If I visit a new site like github(dot)com or brave(dot)com, these two sites will appear in top site widget. It is possible to remove them sites temporarily. If I revisit the same site or some random site, they fill up the slots one by one.
At least I can remove a top site temporarily but, privacy stats neither can be stopped nor removed from New Tab Page.
## Steps to reproduce
1. Disable Sponsored images and background images from new tab page settings
2. Disable all widgets from widget stack section
3.
## Actual result
## Expected result
Privacy Stats and Top Site widgets will appear
