Despite the constant conflicts between the browser and advertisers, however, Brave has managed to increase its user base, while also enjoying wide success as a niche browser among Internet users. However, users quickly began complaining about the lack of advertising that appeared when browsing the Internet, and advertisers soon began blocking support for the browser, even as Google and Microsoft maintain their dominant share of the search engine market. Brave’s developers had long been frustrated with the lack of security and privacy protection present in most current browsers, and they finally took action with the implementation of Brave. One of the primary motivations behind the creation of Brave was to implement the Open Source community’s need for a secure browsing engine. Brave also implements cookies, or web beacons, which provide users with the ability to sign in without having to memorize passwords or passcodes to access content on the Internet.

In 2021, Brave was one of the first browsers to implement the High-Bandwidth Hosting Protocol (HBHPP), an industry-standard that defines the bandwidth limits for websites. Brave is a browser-based web browser developed by Brave Software, a company of Yahoo! Online, and the maker of the pop-up blocker McAfee.
