BRAVE - the new browser and BAT - Basic Attention Token have launched an innovative application of blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.
The USP of the web browser is its privacy-centric approach and the opportunity of earning rewards for BRAVE users. This browser blocks all current ads and restricts the transmission of any data, except the number of clicks on the ads, back to the advertiser. In case, BRAVE creates matching ad posts as advertisers for the willing viewers based on their interest in engagement.
We have seen it recently that people are getting a stereotypical concept of the browser that blocks ads. But it is not just an ad blocking browser. It admonishes your Privacy and backs your choice. If you hate ads - stop seeing those. If you wish to see particular ads - get it. If you wish to block cookies and scripts - do it. If you think of sharing your information - then share. This browser limits you from nothing but brings back the control to the users.
While so many businesses violate user privacy, efforts like Brave drive on the opposite side.
By the start of 2018, Brave only had 1 million users roughly. And by the end of the year, it crossed 5.5 million user count. That’s a jaw-dropping 450% increase in user base, right! Currently (as per the last report released in March'19), Brave has more than 20 million downloads from Google Play only.
So, address the issue of the data breach and privacy concerns due to cookies and adverts with the powered Brave browser now.
