For the uninformed: A real VPN connection routes all network traffic from the machine in question through a remote host via an encrypted connection. A browser based "vpn connection" is no such thing. It only routes the browser's own traffic through a remote host - IF it works, and UNTIL it is compromised by an exploit hosted on a site the over-confident user visits. It leaves the system wide open to multiple families of side channel attacks, and if your security model includes State and Corporate actors as potential adversaries, that's not a hypothetical or acceptable risk. :o/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJY8k2iAAoJEECU6c5XzmuqJn8IAMNBHtgfoPbgd1Qinc9yxb1n YednvLNbFs+68aEFUqrN9IIL4TCTBeb0ZDSiHuaWkvAI7b6AbVcXIw5a6dLrXP2J ySvzlXYTFDtNrHFNmNtxCWqjYsbN823YAfthNV+quoRXRJufewgHNTaHObRp3tRL j2g/bfU1/vkzt42IklTkuvNs9IoZSb5UYIIokCF/bGf88gceTvx9OGYHfcjQ181I HxFTxdVWvGUkYSR00TQX3pKaUpzmT/bTxf9auh0ZVsjhYaoSzB+FnoVMaqls+jSf J4E1SqCMBxYVcMD5pKy94K7E0NbqHZ9VVAhiu8e5AnpgG2nj5HV4VBjMtFrExTo= =qXCo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Try privatix vpn firefox addon. It is one click to enable in the browser and is free too.
Provided by the service? For load and exec in your browser? And "free"? Lol! Run, run far far away. Use a real opensource OS... BSD, Linux... whonix qubes concept, or roll your own... actual packet filters, OpenVPN or similar, VMs etc. A "free" tier of a legit pay service might be ok if they are profitable enough to do it. Finding a legit service is hard, always search negative opinion. There are various p2p vpn's, proxies and other services people can join in volunteer with and use. Tor is the most well known of them. As with all, must validate each tool with your threat model and usage, so to not end up swiss cheese.
I hear what you are all saying and i agree. However there are still some good reasons why you might want to use the browser plugin.. 1) Maybe i dont want all my network traffic forwarded - Still a trust issue with upstream vpn provider. 2) Perhaps i dont want my torrents to consume vpn bandwidth 3) If i want hd streaming direct to my computer where my connection is already a bit shit, I can one click disable the vpn or concurrently use different browser. 4) Regular users can enable with one click. Still better than no vpn. 5) I dont trust tor much any more. Plus i can use other plugins on firefox. I have been trying it out for a while now whilst keeping a close eye packet level for leaks with no problem so far. Maybe someone could recommend a VPN provider?? A free one would be nice.

Also it is more anonymous than a subscriber service if you use the free peers as you dont need to sign up. On Sat, 15 Apr 2017, b0z0@SDF.ORG wrote:

So what... put the thing in a vm / jail / whatever that offers separate routing table from rest of system, use that to split horizon.
3 4 click
Toggling bad... cookies, tls session keys, browser / stack retransmits, homing intervals, etc. Separate instances are needed to avoid.

Plugin, openvpn, whichever... you still have basic security architecture issues to address.
level for leaks with no problem so far.
Doesn't mean it wont. Packet filter is needed protection. Though not as bad as the remote-load-js-code-on-every-use of 'encrypted' webmail services (lol), plugins still phone home autoupdate, may be binary blobs, etc.
anon free sign up
Some vpn's need only a VC transaction, ie: bitcoin, z*, etc. Get from ATM / meetup / labor, mix, contribute to VC economy.
