Brave Browser v1.84.141
Brave Browser v1.84.141 macOS
Internet/Web Browser with built-in anonymity by “Tor“.
Take back control with Brave Browser.
You deserve a better internet.
So we reimagined what a browser should be.
It begins with giving you back power. Get unmatched speed, security and privacy by blocking trackers.
Brave Browser filters YouTube ads right out of the box with its built-in “Shields” feature, no plugins needed.
Brave Browser is based on the Chromium project, so you can use most of the extensions/add-ons from ‘Google Chrome web store‘.
We all know what’s wrong.
As a user, access to your web activity and data is sold to the highest bidder. Internet giants grow rich, while publishers go out of business. And the entire system is rife with ad fraud.
Block data-grabbing ads and trackers
The vast bulk of websites and ads include software that tries to identify you. They want to track your every move across the web. Brave blocks all this, allowing you to browse freely.
Blocking ads and trackers means a faster internet
Brave loads major news sites up to six times faster than Chrome, Safari and Firefox on mobile and desktop.
Browse much more privately with Tor
Other browsers claim to have a “private mode”, but this only hides your history from others using your browser. Brave lets you use Tor right in a tab. Tor not only hides your history, it masks your location from the sites you visit by routing your browsing through several servers before it reaches your destination. These connections are encrypted to increase anonymity.
