IO Browser1.0

While it is true that numerous economic sectors benefit from the access to the Internet, the problem raised by many is that they operate as centralized systems. Generally speaking, a centralized system entails that there is no transparency, abuse of power and censorship, as many protests and social movements have pointed out.IO Browser is a tiny browser Firefox-based that can help overcome these limitations, as it enables users to access various decentralized systems, such as .bazar, .coin, .lib or .emc directly.

Embeds the looks and functionality of Firefox

The utility is based on the Firefox engine and hence, it is only natural that it looks and works in a similar manner as its more popular counterpart. Needless to say that the engine is at its latest version and hence, you can take advantage of the fresh look and latest security features.Unlike Firefox, the application is designed to run slightly faster according to the developer, although this factor may not be noticeable if you are not using extensions for your browser.

Provides direct access to the decentralized web

The highlight of the program stems from the fact that it provides users direct access to the decentralized web, a feature you notice as soon as you open it. Moreover, the app includes an extension link to Blockchain-DNS.info which you can consider adding to your browser without having to worry that it impacts its overall performance of speed.On a side note, since the application is still in development and has been recently released, the documentation is rather scarce. Nevertheless, the extra information about the technology used for anti-malware as well as the phishing protection is likely to be available soon. For the time being, the tool allows direct access to .bazar, .coin, .lib and .emc.

A lightweight browser that grants you access to the so-called free Internet

While it borrows the looks, functionality and feels of Firefox, IO Browser is a tool that comes with an extra set of security features so that you are safer and more secure on the web.
