2024-11-01 Artur I am very pleased with the quality and effectiveness of this add -on. It is very helpful and complements the PIA VPN program (application). It has several options that strengthen anonymity on the Internet.
2024-10-17 Firefox user 18642842 This plugin causes conflicts with my Hikvision camera plugin. I can display my two cameras on the web gui when this plugin is disabled. However, when this plugin is enabled it interferes and causes the video window to be too large and offset to the right (so the second camera is not visible).

2024-08-14 Firefox user 14609082 Always goes down for extended periods of time. It shows it's connected but you can't load pages. Sometimes reinstalling gets it working again but only lasts a short while.
2024-08-05 Firefox user 17025688 Servers frequently drop out and stop working, and when that's not the issue it completely messes up and "Fails to Authenticate" forcing me to have to resign in. It's a bloody unreliable hassle that has been happening for the past year.
