Syariah compliant web browser aims to make the Internet a better place

The Internet can be a really toxic place, and hoping to turn it into a more nurturing and positive environment is Salam Web Technologies, a syariah-compliant Internet suite of services. The startup is collaborating with Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) under a three-year partnership, to “promote a safer online environment that is free from vices and toxic elements”.

One of its first projects is the SalamBrowser, touted as the world’s first syariah-compliant web browser, which Salam Web claims will eliminate inappropriate content from the search results.
