Mozilla, the company famous for its Firefox browser, has launched a new VPN (virtual private network) for Windows and Android. It’s only available in the UK, US, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia, and New Zealand.
It costs US$4.99 per month and offers the privacy and security promised by other VPN providers. Mozilla VPN has thirty different countries to route your internet traffic through, as well as granular controls over certain cities for accessing geo-locked content.
The app will expand to more countries and get an iOS version soon, according to the company.
Mozilla is marketing the VPN on its brand reputation as a privacy-minded company that doesn’t keep user logs. Many VPN companies claim this, but Mozilla’s track record should persuade people that it is a service they can trust.
It said, “We don’t partner with third-party analytics platforms who want to build a profile of what you do online. And since the makers of this VPN are backed by a mission-driven company you can trust that the dollars you spend for this product will not only ensure you have a top-notch VPN, but also are making the internet better for everyone.”
