Brave Browser Adds Native Support for Decentralized IPFS Protocol
Even though Brave browser was caught up in some controversies last year, it looks like they managed to become the first major web browser to add support for InterPlantetary File System (IPFS) protocol with the help of Protocol Labs.
This support was introduced with v1.19.86 release.
In case you didn’t know, IPFS is a peer to peer protocol that lets you store and share files. You can safely assume it as something similar to the BitTorrent protocol with some technical differences.
Just because it is totally a decentralized system to store and share files, it can be quite effective to fight censorship by big tech and the government.
