Windscribe for Firefox Description
Even though the web floods us with incommensurable amounts of knowledge, it does happen for users to experience the web preferentially, meaning they can be affected by geo-restrictions that limit the content they can access.
Windscribe for Firefox is a handy application that can get rid of all these restrictions while also ensuring you are not bothered by ads or trackers.
Includes a VPN to remove geo-restrictions
As made clear by its very name, Windscribe is a Firefox browser extension that proves of great help to users trying to ditch local restrictions that make content unavailable for users living in specific areas. For that, the VPN it incorporates makes it possible to hide your IP.
To be more specific, the extension comes with a connection mode that automatically changes your location whenever local restrictions are found on web page you are accessing, with a list of alternatives being put at your disposal.
You can fake your IP as if coming from the US, Canada, Austria, Germany, Netherlands, Russia, Hong Kong, Japan, and many others.
Can efficiently block ads and trackers
Other than that, the browser addon integrates an ad blocker and an option to remove social media buttons. Plus, blocking beacons and trackers is also possible, and the same can be said about randomly rotating your user agent using the so-called “Split Personality” functionality.
Needless to say, whitelisting websites in order to protect them from all the modifications the extension applies can be done.
Additionally, a secure link generator is on the feature list so that you can easily share privacy with your friends, with a “Copy” button being the only control you need to resort to.
Reliable Firefox extension protecting you online
All in all, Windscribe for Firefox is an easy-to-handle addon whose purpose is to make your browsing experience safe and clean, being able to hide your IP with the help of the incorporated VPN while also blocking ads and trackers, all in an approachable GUI.
