Hello general question:
Are Vanitygen less safe than random Adresses since they were bruteforced?

Im dont have too much knowledge in programming but if Vanitygen would always start a bruteforce from 0000000.. until it finds a match that means that a bruteforce / collider would find those adresses first because they are on the very low end of the private key scale.

Is this assumption correct or are those keys as safe as a totally random one?
