a brave 1.45 It’s a new version of the most popular pro-privacy and pro-crypto browser on the scene, and the news it brings in this release goes both ways, the first of the Chromium derivatives to appear.

Or rather not: if Chromium 107 was released a few days ago, Chrome 107 appeared shortly after. But again, it’s not a particularly noticeable version for users. Although it contains important improvements at the level of internal functions, such as replacing some APIs, changes for developers and a lot of fixes and some optimizations, the main part of the news remains there.

The same is not the case with Brave 1.45, which, while adding everything or almost everything that Chromium 107 adds, implements its own novelties, including one that will delight users, as it was for Vivaldi users before: block warning cookieswhich jumps out with more or less derision every time you enter the site for the first time.

Introduced by grace – rather by misfortune – GDPR, which has its good and bad things, see for example, the warning about cookies they are an ordeal that you have to deal with in a very different way, as there are sites that get rid of them with a few clicks, others that force you to press countless options…

Until you want to swallow s cookies, Sure; otherwise you accept all and Wide is Castile. Well, if you’re a Brave user and you want damn warnings cookies, Brave put an end to them. To activate it, you need to go to “Settings> Brave Shields> Content Filtering> Filter Lists” and there look for “Easylist-List of cookies» and marks it.

But keep in mind that this option does, like what the same option does in Vivaldi or the I don’t care about cookies extension available for any browser, is to block those annoying ads to accept cookies. cookies and nothing more. Neither accept nor reject. Thus, the behavior of a user who browses without accepting or rejecting the above warning may depend on the site.

Another privacy-related feature of Brave 1.45 is a new one copy the clean link, an option added to the address bar context menu that makes it easy to copy only the main URL of a site, skipping any other unnecessary or questionable parameters in the process. Brave, on the other hand, improves fingerprint protection and private browsing.

In terms of functionality, Brave 1.45 improves on the functionality of the previous version of the browser by expanding language support for a new website translator, a Chrome-style but user-privacy-friendly one that was released last month with very few options and now supports more than 100 languagesincluding Catalan, Galician and Basque.
