Brave expands browser/firewall/VPN service

Brave 1.49 should keep you secret 

Brave has expanded its browser/firewall/VPN service, known as Brave Firewall + VPN, to Windows.

Brave 1.49 can now run on top of Windows and MacOS for $9.99 per month or $99.99 annually. Each subscription supports up to five devices.

Brave works with Guardian to provide its VPN and it allows you to select other regions where you can pretend to live. This allows you to see Netflix options in foreign countries. 

Unlike Google's VPN, Brave’s VPN service doesn’t collect identifying information, including cookies, nor logs it, but the VPN is confined to the browser.

Brave, however, said it believes its combination of services offers close to, if not absolute privacy: The Brave browser blocks ads and trackers, the firewall blocks incoming attacks, and the VPN helps preserve your anonymity from ISPs and other services.
