We wouldn't put money on this happening any time soon, though, thanks to the fact Mozilla VPN doesn't yet seem to be fully targeting streaming. So, that's the full gamut of 'standard' devices now supported, but unlike more mature services, there's no Fire Stick VPN app, or any options for users of other streaming devices. Now launched, the product costs $4.99 a month with Windows, Mac, Android, iOS and Linux fully supported. The genuine Mozilla VPN (check out our full Mozilla VPN review) was developed alongside this project – a fully-fledged virtual private network which encrypts your entire device’s traffic. While useful for casual users, the simple extension can't compete with a true VPN. The free (for now) browser extension is essentially a Mozilla VPN-lite, only protecting browser traffic while leaving the rest of the device vulnerable.

The add-on enables Firefox users to encrypt their browser traffic when they need extra security – such as when connected to public Wi-Fi – but is still in beta and limited to users in the US. Late 2019 saw Mozilla launch its Firefox Private Network add-on – and yes, the add-on and VPN did confusingly share a name for a while. Previously known as Firefox Private Network and Firefox VPN, and only available in the US, it lingered in closed beta for a fair amount of time, but it's now a fully-functioning VPN that users are flocking to. The all-new Mozilla VPN joined the ranks of the best VPN services on the market in mid-2020, and the cyber-blockbuster release is available in the US, UK, Singapore, Malaysia, Canada and New Zealand, with more regions in the pipeline.
