Overview:

Brave Browser is a free, open-source, privacy-focused web browser which offers security, speed, and user-control over data. It offers faster browsing while blocking intrusive ads and trackers by default. The user interface is intuitive and clutter-free providing a seamless browsing experience. Being built on Chromium engine, it supports all Chrome extensions, making it versatile and functional. It has built-in security features like HTTPS Everywhere, script-blocking, and cookie blocking to ensure a tight security against threats. It also has TOR integrated for anonymous browsing.

Unlike most browsers, it presents a new angle in online advertising through the Brave Rewards program, enabling users to earn Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing privacy-respecting ads. These tokens can be used to support content creators or redeemed in a variety of ways.
