Brave Browser – PC WORLD

Better data protection has other positive side effects: There Good browsers blocks many intrusive trackers by default, many news pages automatically load much faster than in other browsers. This is simply because without the tracking information, there is less data to transmit. In addition, there is the option of using an extended privacy mode with the Brave Browser, in which the entire browser traffic of a tab is routed through the Tor network. In this way, you remain much more anonymous when surfing the net than is the case with Firefox or Chrome browsers, for example. The default search in the Brave Browser runs through DuckDuckGo, a privacy-friendly alternative to the Google search engine. In a study, Brave was recognized as the browser that “phones home” the least, which fits perfectly with the program’s image. In addition, Brave Browser often uses less memory than comparable browsers to display certain websites. Brave is based on Chromium, so it also uses the Blink rendering engine.

The Brave Browser rewards you with BAT (Basic Attention Tokens) for viewing privacy-friendly advertising. You can pass this on to content creators by giving them a so-called tip (“tip”). In this way, Brave hopes to create an Internet where publishers are rewarded for the content they create, without advertisers “needing” to track and spy on users in order to advertise effectively. Overall, the software is interesting for many reasons, so anyone who has only got to know Firefox, Chrome and/or Edge should give this alternative browser a try.
