2º If they do a dns leak test, the company Datacamp Limited appears. An England company rarely has a proton on it. It generates certain doubts in me. No wonder they are all millionaires in England.
3º I think that the authorities collaborate. changed their usage policy. What appears on the page is not what they say. "I can say one thing and do something else" generates doubt in me.
4º How can I know that the company Datacamp Limited does not leak everything. The company is registered in Switzerland but they hire an England company.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი
თარიღი დღის წინWe use a combination of our own and rented servers. Some of our servers and networks are fully owned and controlled by us, while others utilize third parties as we don't have facilities in every country. When we rent servers and networks, we only utilize trusted data centers that meet all of our security criteria and are able to provide us with full access to the server itself, and we only use bare-metal servers. All our servers also utilize full-disk encryption so that no third-party can extract data off of them even if they have physical access to the hardware.
That said, DataCamp Limited is one of many providers that we use in order to provision servers in a certain location. Rest assured, these servers are completely under our control, and the same privacy and security principles apply to them as well. In any case, if you wish to connect to servers that are wholly owned and provisioned by us, you can enable the Secure Core feature: https://protonvpn.com/support/secure-core-vpn.
Last but not least, you have no reason to worry about your data when using Proton VPN. We have a strict no-logs policy protected by Swiss law, and we are open-source and undergo regular third-party audits of our services. You can learn more at https://protonvpn.com/blog/is-protonvpn-trustworthy.

On Windows the extension reconnects when the system wakes, but on macOS the extension gums up the whole browser if the system went to sleep with the VPN connected, necessitating unloading and reloading the extension.

You have to search a list of 900 countries, even though everyone mostly only uses a handful of them.
2. Can not be enabled only for specific *containers* (to specied countries.)
This is also easily possible with other VPNs via the Mozilla Container extension, if you would have a SOCKS5 proxy address. to use with Proton...
Other than that, it works.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

Disconnecting and reconnecting hangs, and that gets nowhere, but disabling and re-enabling the extension makes everything work. Proton is a great VPN with a lot of extra functionality, but this extension needs a bit more polish.

თარიღი თვის წინThank you for your feedback. We're aware of the issue, and our team is working on a potential fix, although we currently don’t have a specific timeframe that we can share. Make sure to keep your browser and the Proton VPN extension up-to-date for any improvements. Meanwhile, we’ve made sure to document your report accordingly.- 3 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი Firefox-ის მომხმარებელი 16255090, თვის წინWould be great if it had a "default connection" option and a "Recents" list like on the iOS app. Selecting the preferred country each and every time is a bit of a pain point when it's half-way down the list of countries.
Also, can you make split tunneling work the opposite way? i.e. I only want some websites to go throught the VPN.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

Przy ponownym uruchamianiu przeglądarki Firefox nie ma do niego dostępu, tak jakby wciąż się wczytuje, a proces ten nie kończy się. A zatem skorzystanie w pełni z tego rozwiązania nie jest możliwe, ponieważ dopóki rozszerzenie nie połączy się z serwerem, to strony nie wczytują się. Aby rozwiązać ten problem należy wyłączyć rozszerzenie i następnie ponownie je włączyć. To bardzo upierdliwe.

- 3 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი g1zm02k, 2 თვის წინDoes the job, but it does it in the most basic and annoying way possible, for example you can't set up a default country (i.e. USA) and you instead have to constantly scroll down and activate your country of choice manually every time you want to use it because it resets the list position back to the beginning any time you click on anything...
This wouldn't be a problem if not for the fact that you can't invert split-tunnelling — I literally only want to use the VPN for one or two sites that I have data on that are blocked in the UK but I can't without it causing problems everywhere else — so I have to continuously Connect/Disconnect via the long-winded means I mentioned above every time I want to use those sites.
Other than that, no issues, but I won't be resubscribing as it's really too much faffing about for something that you should be able to set up as a one-click connect.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

- 3 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი User, 3 თვის წინHello, glad to see that these reviews are actively monitored and responded to. A major issue that I have had with this extension for ages is that I cannot pin certain locations to the top of the country list, or set a certain location as default as is possible in the mobile app versions of ProtonVPN. It is tedious to have to always search or scroll far down to get to the desired location. Please add this feature.

- 3 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი Namecito, 5 თვის წინIt never worked since I installed it like 3 weeks ago. My case is the same than the one of the previous reviewer. I need it mostly for one website. When trying to enable it I get the same error: "Network error..." Firefox and add-on are updated, 115.26.0es and 1.2.9 respectively. Not using any other proxy or VPN.
Update due to developer's reply: I'll contact you providing info on the questions asked. I would like to add that I just tried the Chrome extension and it works. So it might be something related specifically to Firefox.
Update 2: I solved it. When filling up the support request I decided to give it a last try and discovered that when installing the add-on there's a fugacious message I can't read nor accept that precedes the aforementioned error. So I recorded my screen and play in slow motion and saw there's a message asking for permissions. After googling I went to the add-ons page and selected the extension and then its Permissions tab and enabled them and it worked. Might be kind of a bug that prevents the message to stop.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

Since last year, the connection has become unstable in China, and there are times when I simply cannot connect, no matter how many attempts I make.
Additionally, the login process requires accessing the proton.me domain, which is not feasible in China. I have to use other tools to bypass the Great Firewall just to log in to ProtonVPN, which is quite absurd. The whole point of using ProtonVPN is to access the internet freely, yet I find myself needing to circumvent restrictions just to use the service.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი
თარიღი 5 თვის წინWe're sorry to hear that. The reason you're experiencing this issue is due to the very aggressive restrictions in China. 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.

However, no matter how many times I try to reconnect, it always connects to a server in my country and never to servers in other countries, so I would like to see an improvement.

თარიღი წლის წინThe default Quick connect option will connect you to the fastest available server for you. This leads to better load balancing and higher speed, which is a priority for free users. That said, you still have the option to switch to another randomly allocated server by disconnecting and reconnecting again, or you can upgrade to connect to a specific server of your choice. - 3 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი Firefox-ის მომხმარებელი 18321893, წლის წინ

“Not active on every website or active only on this website” We didn't ask you to reinvent America. I think you are using stalling tactics because you don't want to do it. I made a comment like this for an application I don't want to name, I was directed to the website, but the website feedback form was not working. I hope I made myself clear.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

Please contact us at https://protonvpn.com/support-form if you have any specific questions, concerns, or requests regarding Proton VPN. - Mostly works well on Windows 11, until your computer goes to sleep. After you wake it up, Firefox has no Internet connectivity until you close and reopen Firefox, or disable the Proton VPN extension.
Developer response:
"Sorry to hear that. Could you share more details about the issue? What version of Firefox do you currently have installed? Are you receiving any error messages after waking the device from sleep? Are you using any other extensions for privacy/security purposes? Contact us at [support form URL] with more details so we can investigate the behavior further."
My response to developer:
I filed a support request with details last week and haven't heard anything. I'm disappointed to see a response to my review here before getting a response from support. But since I'm getting a response here:
Windows 11 23H2 build 22631.4460
Firefox 132.0.2
Proton VPN 1.2.3
No error messages (unless I open up the Browser Console)
Other extensions in use include uBlock Origin and DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials.
The problem immediately goes away when I disable Proton VPN after waking from sleep. I can quickly toggle the extension off and back on and Proton reconnects and everything works from that point.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი
