Epic Browser is a piece of software that allows you to browse content online without creating any sort of record of your activity. The ability to browse the web privately is a growing demand from consumers in a vast cross-section of the world market. Users have caught on to the idea that online entities can track their behavior in the pursuit of tailoring ads specifically to a single person. Many people see this as an invasion of privacy, especially when they are tracked through some internet activity that they would prefer remain secret.

Because of the demand for such private browsing, Epic Browser has grown into an exceptionally popular browser, and it boasts significant user numbers in the United States, Nigeria, and China. As more internet users learn the value of browsing privately, the browser will only become more popular.

Perhaps the strongest feature of Epic Browser is that it easily blocks advertisements. Regardless of the number of ads on a page, Epic Browser will ignore them all so you won't be distracted. This ability to eliminate the problem of ads is highly useful, and there are few other browsers that can perform the same task with the same efficiency.

When you log on to the web through Epic Browser, data transfers of any and all sorts are fully encrypted. This prevents your online activities from being monitored or recorded. In some nations, the local government can choose to disapprove and block certain websites, and Epic Browser can get around those restrictions so you can view forbidden content without attracting attention.

It should be noted that using Epic Browser is an exceptionally effective method for protecting your online activities, but that protection comes at a price. The browser isn't particularly fast, and searches via common search engines take a fair amount of time. Once you've found a page that you want to load, the process is decently fast, but it still lacks some of the zippy speed of the benchmark browsers. Of course, this is a trade-off for the added protection of the powerful encryption.

If you are worried over your security while browsing the internet, Epic Browser could be an excellent way to relieve your stress. It keeps you protected from prying eyes while online, and it leaves behind no traces of your activity. The browser is totally free, and it completely shuts down advertisements of all sorts. The only real downside to the browser is that you can tell it operates at a slow rate if you are accustomed to industry leading browsers like Firefox, Chrome, or Safari. However, the slight speed degradation is well-worth the protection, and if you have a sufficiently powerful internet connection, you won't notice much of a difference at all. Epic Browser most certainly performs well enough to make it worthy of its name.
