In today’s world, there’s a huge issue with the wide accessibility of pornography which has the potential to lead to a crippling addiction that can seriously negatively impact one’s life.
The gateway to this “drug” is ultimately internet browsers…
Thankfully, in Brave settings under privacy and security > security > Select DNS Provider - you can choose the “Clean Browsing” DNS that blocks adult content very well, even if you are using a VPN!
But, the problem is that this setting can easily be switched off
For people with children who want them to have a safe browsing experience, or even someone who is personally addicted to pornography, this poses a HUGE problem.
The solution?
An option in Brave to completely LOCK this setting so it cannot be changed no matter what. Once you turn it on, you get an option to lock it forever and it cannot be undone. Or at the very least, locked behind a password or time delay.
(Time delay meaning, once you unlock it, you have to wait X amount of days before it unlocks)
Then, the next issue this raises is that a sneaky person can just delete the Brave app from their computer, re-install it and BOOM. The setting is gone.
So there would have to be a way that once this setting is locked, the Brave app cannot be uninstalled from your computer.
I know this is possible to do because other apps do it such as Cold Turkey Blocker.
Lastly, an option to block individual sites that you manually enter which may not be blocked by Clean Browser would be amazing.
I strongly believe this small but POWERFUL feature would be so incredibly impactful to millions and millions of people when it comes to providing a safe browsing experience.
Please upvote this feature if you believe it would be worth adding!
