Overview

Windscribe helps you mask your physical location, circumvent censorship, and block ads and trackers on websites you use every day

Windscribe is a VPN desktop application and proxy browser extension that work together to block ads, trackers, restore access to blocked content, and help you safeguard your privacy online. The Free plan provides 10 GB of data per month (if you confirm your email address), and the Pro plan has unlimited data and access to servers in over 134 cities in 69 countries. Still not convinced? Perhaps this elegant list of features will convince you otherwise. Browse Privately ------------------------- Governments block content based on your location. Corporations track and sell your personal data. Add Windscribe to your browser and take back control of your privacy. Advanced Privacy Features ------------------------- Windscribe is not just a proxy extension. It's a suite of privacy tools which include: * Ad Crusher - Ads, trackers, and malware follow you around, waste your bandwidth, and compromise your privacy and security. Windscribe will block all this crap. * Social Blocking - Social networks are the biggest privacy invaders out there. Block their tracking widgets and buttons. * Cookie Go Away - Blocks annoying "We use cookies" banners on all websites. * Whitelisting - Our block lists are not one size fits all. Customize your experience. * Notification Blocking - Tired of sites asking you to send notifications? We are too. Enable this feature to never see those things again. * WebRTC Blocking - Prevents WebRTC leaks that plague most proxy extensions and VPNs. * Geolocation API Spoofing - Sites can request your GPS location, which bypasses most proxies and VPNs. Not with Windscribe. * Timezone Spoofing - Sites can detect that your IP doesn't match your browser's time zone. This feature solves this problem. * User Agent Spoofing - Helps combat browser fingerprinting. * Language Spoofing - This feature will spoof your browser's language settings to match the proxy location of your choice. * Worker Block - Block web workers from running in the background and collecting data. * Ad Privacy - Disable ad topics, site-suggested ads, and ad measurement features enabled in Chrome. Unlock content ------------------------- Windscribe VPN masks your IP address. This gives you unrestricted and private access to entertainment, news sites, and blocked content in over 69 different countries. No identifying logs ------------------------- Your privacy is a right. We don’t track you. We don't sell your data to marketers or even share it with anyone. We don’t keep logs that can de-anonymize you. Go beyond basic protection. ------------------------- For comprehensive privacy protection even outside of the browser, use our desktop VPN applications (they’re also free). Available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Did we mention mobile? Yeah, there are mobile apps too. We got your back. ------------------------- Having issues with Windscribe VPN or want to suggest something?

You won't find a VPN anywhere with the plethora of extra features, options, and ethical handling of data, that Windscribe packs. I'm an app harlot, afraid of commitment and just in it to have a good time. But, Windscribe is more than a sidepiece, and they've made an honest man of me. Unbelievably, I even paid. We've been together for 5 whole years - by far, my longest relationshApp. As long as they keep puttin' out (new features), stay in the kitchen where they belong, and don't get too lippy... Show more

This app is GREAT! My social circle is over half friends in UK. I can watch shows from stations in the UK, 8/10x using a friends' Post Code, w/o a problem! Got an email today that windscribe is on the ball and updated the extension. We're not going to lose anything. The latest version I have is 4.0.2 If you use Chrome browser, click the puzzle looking piece on the top right and UPDATE EXTENSIONS.
