Browsec is a convenient and free VPN extension. Installed in two clicks on any browser. No need to come up with a clever password login, confirm mail and leave fingerprints. Helps to bypass geo-locks and access movies, TV shows and social media accounts.
Features and benefits of the service
The Browsec extension encrypts traffic through a secure cloud network. This prevents cybercriminals from obtaining personal data, and, most importantly, passwords for bank accounts. The user can fearlessly make online purchases, withdraw money, work with Qiwi and Webmoney.
Acting as a proxy server, the Browsec extension changes the IP and real location to virtual. Thanks to this, the user bypasses the locks and gets access to any content, online platforms, as well as sites around the world.
Reviews of the Browsec extension emphasize that, unlike other VPNs, the service has practically no effect on speed. With the proxy enabled, online viewing of video content without delay in downloading is available. There are also no restrictions on the free service package, unlike Tunnel Bear or Hoxx.
Another plus is the small size. The extension "weighs" only 2.44 MB and does not slow down the RAM. The only flaw in periodic advertising. To get rid of it, you need to connect the premium version for $ 2.99 per month.
How to get started with the extension
To install the Browsec extension in Opera you need to select the "Extensions" item in the settings and management menu. In the left pane, click "Add Extension". In the window that opens, find in the upper right corner the line “Search for Add-ons” and enter Browsec in English. After the page with the extension opens, click "Add to Opera".
Google users need to go to the Chrome store through a search engine or use the advanced settings menu. To do this, select the "Add Accessibility" item. In the window that opens, find "Search by store", enter the name of the extension and click "Install."
For Yandex Browser, the Browsec extension is installed through the online store, as well as for Google. The mobile version for iOS and Android is available on the Play Market, App Store and on the official website of browsec.com.
Is Browsec safe
The Browsec extension is an anonymous surfing tool on the Internet. But practically nothing is known about the location of the central office or about the creators. There is only a website and information that this is a Russian proxy server owned by Browsec LLC. Communication with the company is carried out only by e-mail.
True paranoid people may suspect that the service is tracking the history of the browser and shamelessly selling it to third parties. And they can be understood. The VPN Hola story gives you every right to worry. But Browsec has proven that it can be trusted. The extension has more than 3 million satisfied users. Over 20 thousand people rated the service as excellent. And on Google Play, the extension rating is 4.52 stars.
