Wurdearring: 3 fan 5
troch ankurnits, 7 jierren lynThis is one of the most comprehensive add-ons for geolocation out there. The various levels that it allows for configuration is unmatched.
However, it doesn't serve the purpose. For one, it says it allows you to configure per site but the icon that allows it is always disabled. It's not clickable no matter what option you choose. Moreover, albeit not much of an issue, it it embedded deep into page actions.
It also annoys me when it doesn't allow you to cache the location for infinite duration. I don't understand why deny the possibility if a user wants it.
Also, something that maynot be in it's purview is that a JS request as simple as one for system.time can help a website determine your geo-location.
Lastly, it doesn't work always. Websites such as iplocation.net can still determine your geo-location even when you have faked it using location guard.
I have used location guard in conjunction with and without other vpns but it has failed to do it's job consistently.
Don't get me wrong, faking geo location is a tough thing to do and this add-on does a job much better than any other, but it is still just not enough.

- Wurdearring: 3 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 18205130, 3 moannen lynI haven't figured out how it works yet (but I understand that you need to select a location on the map), but I've already found a bug: When I scroll, a menu appears that I don't intend to open.
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch harl windwolf, 3 moannen lynWorks exactly as expected. The options are available from the list of extensions (Ctrl+Shift+A), Location Guard, three-dot-menu, Options.
If it doesn't work for you on a specific page, that's because the page doesn't rely on the information provided by the browser, but instead checks your IP (or that of your VPN etc) and a few other location sources more aggressively than other pages. There's nothing this (or any other) extension can do about that. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 14280591, 5 moannen lynDoesn't work. Please use a different plugin. This doesn't work at all anymore.
