Removing Google Widevine

I installed Google Widevine by mistake from a streaming website. Since then I've been trying to remove it from my browsers.

Brave:

sudo rm -rf .config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/WidevineCdm

Firefox:

sudo rm -rf .mozilla/firefox/xxx.default-esr/gmp-widevinecdm

The files and folders get deleted, but when I restart, they appear again. Also, chrome://components and about:addons show Windevine Content description module.
