Mozilla тестирует встроенный в Firefox бесплатный VPN

Компания Mozilla начала тестирование Firefox VPN, встроенного в Firefox бесплатного VPN-сервиса, позволяющего обращаться к сайтам не напрямую, а через промежуточные серверы в разных странах, скрывающие IP-адрес пользователя. VPN станет первым сервисом, реализованным в рамках инициативы по интеграции в Firefox дополнительных инструментов для защиты конфиденциальности и усиления безопасности. Сервис находится на ранней стадии внедрения и в ближайшие несколько месяцев в качестве эксперимента станет постепенно предлагаться для включения небольшому проценту случайно выбранных пользователей.
