Firefox now includes a free built-in VPN feature — but what does it actually protect, and is it worth using? You might not see it yet - been rolled out in regions - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/...

In this video I take a practical hands-on look at Mozilla’s browser-level VPN system, including:
• Setup and interface
• Speed tests
• DNS leak testing
• IP and WebRTC privacy checks
• Real-world browsing performance
• What browser VPNs can — and can’t — protect

One surprising discovery during testing was how differently various tools reported the VPN’s apparent location, with traffic appearing to route through places including London and San Francisco. Rather than turning this into a deep networking rabbit hole, this video focuses on the practical everyday experience of using Firefox’s free VPN feature.

Important: this is NOT a full-device VPN. It only protects traffic inside Firefox itself.

If you already use Firefox and want a lightweight extra privacy layer for everyday browsing or public Wi-Fi use, Mozilla’s free VPN may actually be more useful than many people expect.
