Firefox 149 adds built-in free VPN with 50GB monthly data - OMG! Ubuntu

Firefox 149 is adding a free built-in VPN with 50GB monthly data. Browser traffic only — not a full-device VPN.

Firefox’s free VPN will offer 50 gigabytes of monthly data, which is pretty generous for a browser-based VPN. A Mozilla account is required to make use of it, which isn’t a hardship (they’re free), but is a point of friction some may wish to know upfront.

    I generally agree but

    They need to stick with just the browser, period. Stop trying to drift into other areas. Firefox has unfortunately gotten too heavy for what it should be, and adding even more features (good or bad) doesn’t help the core performance.

    they are trying to find better ways to finance themselves than google search contracts. that’s why they are coming up with all their paid services
