來自 Firefox 使用者 14026476,7 年前I have mixed feelings here. I totally recommend PIA as a service but not this add on.
Use the actual PIA Client and give this add-on a WIDE berth, it will NOT protect you and WILL reveal your IP address to anybody who is interested. Put bluntly, it just does not work reliably (if at all sometimes).
Sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn`t, (yet reports that it is connected). - A simple IP lookup reveals all.
Proof:-
https://imgur.com/HnLFbIn (`connected` to london server, but IP lookup showing my Static IP).
https://imgur.com/T6b4mM7 (`connected` to California Server, but again showing my home IP).
A VPN is supposed to anonamize you as one of its primary functions and its clear that with this add-on, the VPN is sometimes not even being connected at all. The most worrying issue is that it reports as being `connected` yet clearly isn`t, which misleads you into thinking you are being protected, when in actuality , you are not.. When first downloaded, this IP look up test (and other similar services), accurately showed the VPN servers IP when tested, but a random test showed it had failed. I guess its possible that reloading the add-on may cure the issue, but whats to stop it failing again? Its not something I would feel happy relying on.

張貼於 7 年前Hello, we'd like to remedy this issue as quick as possible. Is there some steps that you could send us to replicate this issue?
Could you also send us the version of the extension you are using?

- Works OK most of the time, but the connection just dies occasionally requiring switching to a different server. This can result in multiple active logins (ie Facebook). Desperately needs a kill-switch feature to block traffic when the VPN proxy server connection fails. Also needs an option to autostart the VPN with the browser startup.
Over-all it does what I need, but plenty of room for improved reliability and features. - 評價 1 分,滿分 5 分來自 Firefox 使用者 18797758,6 個月前A number of updates over the last year or so have removed servers from the available list until today there is only one server. The speed it bad and you constantly have to change servers to keep your connection working. You get logged out all the time. Use a different service.

However, when this plugin is enabled it interferes and causes the video window to be too large and offset to the right (so the second camera is not visible).
