Firefox added split tab views and absolutely killed it. I didn't even know I needed this feature and now I cannot live without it. Awesome work. Right click on a tab and select "Add Split View" to try it out. #mozilla #firefox

Firefox’s free VPN rollout finally reached me – is it any good? Firefox recently added a free built-in VPN to its desktop browser, but access to the feature is rolling out gradually. It hit my Ubuntu machine last night – and I’m last to be invited to anything, so I thought I’d write a quick rundown of what it actually does, what it doesn’t, and how to set it – assuming you have it. If you’re waiting for it to roll out to you, there’s no special update or download to look out for as this is a progressive rollout feature – Mozilla enables it remotely, in stages. There was no fanfare […] You're reading Firefox’s free VPN rollout finally reached me – is it any good?, a blog post from OMG! Ubuntu. Do not reproduce elsewhere without permission.

Something to look forward to for Firefox fans. It’s called Project Nova, the web browser’s first redesign in six years. With the revamp, Firefox aims to distinguish itself from Chrome and Edge by offering control over AI features while maintaining its focus on privacy. Read more from PC World […]

**Firefox recentlyadded a free built-in VPN to its desktop browser, but access to the feature is rolling out gradually. I finally got my turn in the queue last night when I noticed a new ‘VPN’ button in the browser toolbar.** That’s as honestly as exciting as this post gets; it’s a browser-only VPN. It’s on, it’s off, that’s it. Initially, the feature is only being made available to users in the UK, the USA, France and Germany. If you’re waiting for it to roll out to you, there’s no special update to look out for. Mozilla typically enables progressive rollout features remotely, in stages. You get it when you get it – until you do, here’s an overview of what’s heading your way. ## Using Firefox’s free VPN is easy Enabling Firefox’s free VPN is straightforward Beginning with Firefox 149, Mozilla integrates a free VPN into its browser. The only ‘requirement’ as such was that you need a free Mozilla account, and to be signed-in to it in Firefox. As this is a browser-only VPN and not a system-wide one, it only hides your real IP address and encrypts your internet traffic when active. It won’t mask any activity in other apps. However, Mozilla say some _“essential […] services are excluded from VPN routing to ensure sign-in, VPN reconnection, and screens needed to sign in for public Wi-Fi work properly. All other browsing activity in Firefox remains protected when the VPN is on.”_ The Firefox VPN gives you 50 GB of bandwidth per month. You can keep see see how much data you’ve used/is remaining for the current month from the toolbar applet directly. You can selectively deactivate the VPN for specific websites from the toolbar applet. * **Cost:** Free (with a Mozilla account, also free) * **Bandwidth:** 50 GB per month * **Server** : Automatically selection (no manual control) * **Note:** Browser-only IP protection Unlike paid-for VPN servers (and dodgy ‘free’ browser add-ons) you can’t choose a server location to have your traffic piped through. During my testing I was either connected to a VPN server in the USA or in London. The Firefox VPN is adequate for general-pirpose browsing. If you have specific needs, like needing to use a server in a specific country or benefit from system-wide protection, a paid-for VPN (like Mozilla VPN, Mullvad or Proton VPN) remains gold standard. But for those who just want to shield their browsing while out and out (public Wi-Fi hotspots, The inability to pick a server from a different country means Firefox VPN isn’t going to be much use if you wish to bypass country-specific age restrictions. Don’t want to use it? You can right-click the VPN icon in the toolbar and choose _Remove from Toolbar_. To get it back at a later date, add it from the _Customise Toolbar_ palette. **_Is the feature enabled for you yet? Have you hit any issues in using it? Let me know what you think about this, how it works and if it’s enough to tear you away from a different provider by leaving a comment._**

I've also raised a bug with Firefox. Android has a specific permission which will allow the browser to access the *full* location metadata of a photo.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2029620

Not sure if it is worth raising bugs for Chrome and Samsung as well. Can't easily test […]
