Brave offers some interesting features not seen on other browsers. One of the unique features of this platform is it is an open-source web browser, meaning it allows you to support the online creators who are dedicated to providing you a secure way to browse. She shared: “Brave uses the same fundamentals as Google Chrome, meaning you can also easily sync your existing data from Chrome to Brave. Merilee Johnson, RDR, CRR, CRC, who is a member of the NCRA Technology Committee with me, also uses Brave. Brave ads analyze the user’s behavior locally, and no other parties have access to the user’s data. If this is you, Brave has the option to participate in Brave Rewards, where you earn tokens by reviewing private ads. Many people are concerned about the revenue that online ads create and the fact that it’s missing with Brave. While on these websites, the tester/user will simply need to open the browser that the specific website suggests. The con for this browser is that some websites don’t work quite right with Brave, such as NCRA skills testing with My Realtime Coach. Brave is available for Windows, macOS, Linux (Debian 9+, Ubuntu 16.04+, and Mint 18+), iOS, and Android. According to Brave’s internal testing, the Brave web browser can load major news sites up to six times faster than many other browsers because it’s not loading all the extra images, JavaScript, and tracking data.

The Brave browser blocks all this, allowing you to browse freely.

Most advertising platforms use techniques to try to identify you and track you as you move across the web. This browser protects my end user data by keeping my online activity anonymous. It blocks ads, trackers, and blocking script by default, and there are no extra steps to set up these excellent privacy settings. I love that the Brave browser has no ads that pop up. I use Brave for my browser and DuckDuckGo as my search engine.
