Mozilla is adding server location selection to Firefox's built-in free VPN, expected in Firefox 151 releasing May 19. The feature currently routes traffic through Fastly proxy servers automatically based on proximity, but users will soon be able to manually choose from supported locations: USA, UK, France, Canada, and Germany. The free VPN requires a Mozilla account, offers 50 GB/month, and only protects in-browser traffic. Android support is also planned with the same feature set.

Firefox’s free VPN is getting the one feature it was missing

<p>Well, on desktop it’s fine to only route in-browser traffic through the VPN. On mobile, on the other hand, the most important traffic (banking and frequently used apps) is outside Firefox, usually. “The same feature set” sounds like they don’t understand anything mobile, unfortunately. This will be useless to most.</p>


<p>How come it’s free? What’s the catch?</p>
