      The bigger catch is that the VPN will be routed through Mozilla servers - a company that has not built a reputation for offering their own VPN service (their previous offer just resold Mullvad, which does have a good reputation)…

    • Firefox will get a built-in free VPN in v149, rolling out March 24 to the US, France, Germany, and the UK.
    • It routes only browser traffic through a Mozilla proxy for privacy protection, with no extra downloads.
    • Free use is capped at 50GB per month — enough for casual browsing, but Mozilla doesn’t say what happens if you go over.

    Firefox’s desktop marketshare has dropped from 6.3% to 4.2% in the past year.
