- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19502466, 2 months agoAwesome, completely negates the need for a Linux client
- Rated 5 out of 5by Taoking, 2 months agoNever had a single issue with it. Fast and reliable and, most importantly, secure. Proton ecosystem is unrivaled by anyone in the privacy scene.

posted 2 months agoThat doesn't sound right. We have a free plan that costs $0 and allows you to secure your internet connection with no ads, no logs, and provides the same level of privacy and security as our paid plans. Anyone can sign up for our free plan, and we don't ask for any payment details during signup.- Rated 5 out of 5by Peter Hansen, 2 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by cxtbs, 2 months agoРоссия. Не работает даже открытие окна расширения. А на сайт ProtonVPN без прокси и других средств войти невозможно.
Причём на телефоне (Android) подключение удаётся через раз, а как расширение для браузера или служба (в Linux) не работает -- не удаётся подключиться.
Как оно может обходить блокировки и прочее, если само недоступно -- непонятно.Developer response
posted 2 months agoWe're very sorry to hear that. The reason you're experiencing this issue is due to the aggressive restrictions in Russia. Our team is working hard on improving our infrastructure so that all our users are able to connect more easily. We will continue to make more improvements to enhance service availability despite the ongoing blocking attempts.
Meanwhile, you may consider downloading the official Proton VPN app for your specific OS to see if you're able to connect more easily.

(hopefully this extension gets better)
I like Proton a lot. Why? Because Proton is just a amazing company in general. Their VPN is one of the best, and their free VPN is the best non-paid VPN in the market.
However, I've had some problems with their VPN extension. I have limited freedom, I cannot enable the kill switch, change my VPN protocol to something like Stealth (that was created by Proton) to bypass VPN blocks and censorship.
On a heavily restricted, locked down WiFi network (I'm talking Amazon.com, Github.com, DuckDuckGo.com are all blocked and much more), the VPN extension is blocked despite me being signed in and it working on a hotspot and other networks without restrictions. I've used the VPN app with Stealth and it's worked fine on the network, but the extension doesn't work.
I hope that this extension improves in the future and addresses this issue. Thank you Proton.Developer response
posted 2 months agoThank you for your review. Some public networks (e.g. in schools, hotels, airports, workplaces, etc.) tend to apply restrictions in order to prevent harmful activities and keep track of the traffic flowing. That said, the browser extension uses HTTPS. This is the only connection protocol supported by modern browsers. With that in mind, if you cannot connect using the extension, we suggest using the native Proton VPN app with the Stealth protocol, which was designed for this specific purpose.
