av Firefox-användare 14026476, för 8 år sedanI have mixed feelings here. I totally recommend PIA as a service but not this add on.
Use the actual PIA Client and give this add-on a WIDE berth, it will NOT protect you and WILL reveal your IP address to anybody who is interested. Put bluntly, it just does not work reliably (if at all sometimes).
Sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn`t, (yet reports that it is connected). - A simple IP lookup reveals all.
Proof:-
https://imgur.com/HnLFbIn (`connected` to london server, but IP lookup showing my Static IP).
https://imgur.com/T6b4mM7 (`connected` to California Server, but again showing my home IP).
A VPN is supposed to anonamize you as one of its primary functions and its clear that with this add-on, the VPN is sometimes not even being connected at all. The most worrying issue is that it reports as being `connected` yet clearly isn`t, which misleads you into thinking you are being protected, when in actuality , you are not.. When first downloaded, this IP look up test (and other similar services), accurately showed the VPN servers IP when tested, but a random test showed it had failed. I guess its possible that reloading the add-on may cure the issue, but whats to stop it failing again? Its not something I would feel happy relying on.

postad för 8 år sedanHello, we'd like to remedy this issue as quick as possible. Is there some steps that you could send us to replicate this issue?
Could you also send us the version of the extension you are using?

- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Charles, för 9 månader sedanDoes not auto-connect. Which makes it essentially useless. Your IP will be leaked when you launch the browser.
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 6170113, för 9 månader sedanHaven't used it without a problem once.
It also can't be set to auto-connect on start.
PIA in general can't even get get their servers halfway stable and I woldn't trust them with caring for a pet rock either.
They're cheap. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 19547728, för 10 månader sedanAfter installing this asks to purchase the account. Are you serios? It should marked "All features reqires payment" to not waist our time!!! - 100 stars
- Betygsatt 5 av 5av fake, för ett år sedan単独で使うには問題はそれほどない。
しかし、PCにアプリを入れていると拡張と2重化してしまうためか使い物にならない程に低速になる。
アプリからバイパスするとキルスイッチが効かないので接続忘れで不便。
サーバー数もアプリに比べ異常に少ない。
固定IPが無いのがPIAの欠点。
IPが変わるたびにログイン、認証を求められるサイトでは非常に邪魔臭い。
固定IPとアジア圏のサーバー強化を求む。 - Betygsatt 1 av 5av leaftalker, för ett år sedanThe app "works", but whenever I connect to it, the app forces my settings to use light mode. The add-on should not have the ability to force my light/dark mode settings on websites.

- Betygsatt 3 av 5av Pete, för ett år sedanWorks OK most of the time, but the connection just dies occasionally requiring switching to a different server. This can result in multiple active logins (ie Facebook). Desperately needs a kill-switch feature to block traffic when the VPN proxy server connection fails. Also needs an option to autostart the VPN with the browser startup.
Over-all it does what I need, but plenty of room for improved reliability and features. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Clark, för 2 år sedanThis addon has never worked on firefox. For over 3 years. no issues with it on unix or windows but as an extension in browers never worked.
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 18797758, för 2 år sedanA number of updates over the last year or so have removed servers from the available list until today there is only one server. The speed it bad and you constantly have to change servers to keep your connection working. You get logged out all the time. Use a different service.
- Betygsatt 5 av 5av hobbyist, för 2 år sedanSimply the best. This is the serious team that protects your anonymity and privacy. I am a very long long user and in my opinion there is no competitor in the field in this price.
- Betygsatt 5 av 5av Firefox-användare 16922588, för 2 år sedanI have been using PIA for 1 year. Love it. A lot of flexibility.

- Betygsatt 5 av 5av Artur, för 2 år sedanI am very pleased with the quality and effectiveness of this add -on. It is very helpful and complements the PIA VPN program (application). It has several options that strengthen anonymity on the Internet.
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 18642842, för 2 år sedanThis plugin causes conflicts with my Hikvision camera plugin. I can display my two cameras on the web gui when this plugin is disabled. However, when this plugin is enabled it interferes and causes the video window to be too large and offset to the right (so the second camera is not visible).
