posted 9 years agoChinese firewall is very aggressive. Since the extension relies on DNS (which is poisoned in China), there is only so much that can be done. if the desktop app works, use that, and just use the extension to block ads and trackers.

I've regained access to all the sites I once used prior to the new "age restrictions" the Government decided was needed to keep the children safe. I've been a user of Windscribe for years and now can add this to my machines that don't require all the features of the full application. - Rated 5 out of 5by ProActress20, a month ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Woffin, 2 months agoIt's ok. A lot of the IPs are various degrees of blacklisted/cause issues despite having a paid subscription, but at least they're stable with little downtime in the soon to be year I've used it. The biggest issue is that the company is trying to be cute about everything, with inane shit that pops up left and right. I need these people to understand that while it's their workplace and means a lot to them, it's a freaking VPN to the rest of us and we really just need it to do its thing and shut up about it. Mullvad does that a lot better, so we'll see how much I value browser-only VPN when my sub is up.

- Rated 3 out of 5by TIuBo3aBpuK, 2 months agoWindscribe вводит пользователей в заблуждение. Браузерное расширение с названием "Free VPN" на деле предоставляет не VPN, а прокси сервер. Никакого шифрования и безопасности у такого подключения нет.
