Brave
Brave is a privacy-focused web browser that prioritizes user security and data protection. Built on the Chromium open-source project, it offers a familiar browsing experience while integrating enhanced privacy features. With built-in ad-blocking and tracker-blocking capabilities, Brave aims to provide a faster and more secure browsing experience by blocking intrusive advertisements and preventing websites from tracking users' online activities. Additionally, Brave offers a unique feature called Brave Rewards, allowing users to opt-in to view privacy-respecting ads and earn Basic Attention Tokens (BAT), a form of cryptocurrency, as a reward for their attention while browsing the web.
