Description from store
Windscribe is a VPN desktop application and proxy browser extension that work together to block ads, trackers, restore access to blocked content and help you safeguard your privacy online. Free plan provides 10 GB of data per month (if you confirm your email address), and the Pro plan has unlimited data and access to servers in over 112 cities in 69 countries.
Still not convinced? Perhaps this elegant list of features will convince you otherwise.
Browse Privately
-------------------------
Governments block content based on your location. Corporations track and sell your personal data. Add Windscribe to your browser and take back control of your privacy.
Advanced Privacy Features
-------------------------
Windscribe is not just a proxy extension. It's a suite of privacy tools which include:
* Ad + Tracker Blocking - Ads and trackers follow you around, waste your bandwidth and compromise your privacy. Windscribe will block all this crap.
Malware Blocking - Some sites distribute malware. We'll prevent you from ever ending up on those sites.
* Social Blocking - Social networks are the biggest privacy invaders out there. Block their trackers.
* Whitelisting - Our block lists are not one size fits all. Customize your experience.
* Location API Spoofing - Sites can request your GPS location why bypasses most proxies and VPNs. Not with Windscribe.
* WebRTC Blocking - Prevents WebRTC leaks that plague most proxy extensions and VPNs.
* Timezone Spoofing - Sites can detect that your IP doesn't match your browser's time zone. This feature solves this problem.
* Notification Blocking - Tired for sites asking you to send notifications? We are too. Enable this feature to never see those things again.
* User Agent Spoofing - Helps combat browser fingerprinting
* Cookie Monitoring - Leave nothing behind. This feature deletes 1st or 3rd party cookies when you close the tab.
* Language Spoofing - This feature will spoof your browser's language settings to match the proxy location of your choice.
Unlock content
--------------------------
Windscribe VPN masks your IP address. This gives you unrestricted and private access to entertainment, news sites, and blocked content in over 62 different countries.
No identifying logs
-------------------------
Your privacy is a right. We don’t track you. We don't sell your data to marketers, or even share it with anyone. We don’t keep logs that can deanonymize you.
Go beyond basic protection
-------------------------
For comprehensive privacy protection even outside of the browser, use our desktop VPN applications (they’re also free). Available for Windows, Mac and Linux. Did we mention mobile? Yeah, there's mobile apps too.
We got your back

However there is limitations and if you want access to a connection in every country you have to get premium. Over all awesome job Windscribe I very much recommend this

- (2023-08-09) Ayse Elvan Aydemir: Bought the lifetime pro subscription on humblebundle years ago and it is one of the best purchases I have ever made. The product is great, the chrome extension is even better because it allows me to use the browser through a VPN without affecting other apps. Really cool and reliable VPN. As a startup we also used it in the beginning to get static IPs and it was a big help.

- (2023-07-04) Ilya: Что бы вы просто понимали уровень, забрали 20 гигабайт на месяц, и говорят ну извините, нужно распределить нагрузку. У людей у которых 50 было НИЧЕГО не забрали. То есть у кого мало было забрали а у кого много оставили. Ну вот и распределили. И еще с ухмылкой говорят "ну что поделать". А еще сервис стал жутко тормозить приходиться по 10 раз переподключатся. Короче стал из топового, самым дешевым первым попавшимся впном. Вот така судьба.

hey guys youve given me multiple thorough one on one attention every time I needed anything so I wanted to ask you if you know of any definitely toxic combos that your app does not play well with? i also have had your desktop app and chrome add-on but as per our first talk I just let the pc desktop program do the work and then when ublock+adblock came out i added that to delete the 3 i had before on top of yours. ive never had perfect popup-free no-privacy alarms going off but lately every single far flung aspectof my online time has been suffering regularly and randomly alike and i have some good luck incognito no extensions some better normal, but slowdowns come amd go, repeatable but absurd glitches plague and keep me always fighting to the point i acually atarted using my cable tv, netflix, and prime access. any suggestions i just stream free videos and do the usual self-secretarial things online. much obliged though as always and for everyone else Im asking these kind folks because theyre always on top of the situation of the day sharpening the cuttig edge of the last frontier for us couch lovers and they still find time to drop everything to help a rusty old novice keep up with the pack. loyal happy user, tim. - (2017-10-04, v:2.2.1) Gordon Bommer: no more chrome ws
strange, when i click on the windscribe button in chrome to activate the in-browser extension only a blank window opens. Windscribe works fine if I activate it in general from its own app. - (2017-10-04, v:2.2.1) Chan E.C.: localhost
