I'm interested in this project - called Brave - for two reasons. The first is that it's built with the Electron framework, which merges (Node.js) Javascript functionality with a Chromium web browser engine. I've discussed it before. And second, because it explores the possiblity of an ad-free and tracking-free business model for the web, where you pay content producers using a digital token system enabled through your browser. Bother of these could potentially impact educational technology over the next decade or so. One note of caution - Google is keeping some elements of Chromium to itself, blocking open source solutions like Brave from (say) streaming media.
