I currently use Mullvad VPN as my main VPN provider and noticed that they have a Firefox extension that you can use. What are some of the use cases for this? And, what are some of the useful things you can setup with the browser extension enabled?

That looks interesting. It has a kill switch that is dedicated to the browser, so if Mullvad VPN dies, the browser traffic will be blocked. It also has a multi hop featre to re-route your traffic through the VPN and then the proxy location selected in the extension.
I think I will definitly look into this, thank you!

- Browser-only Killswitch
- Pseudo-double-hop connection when used as a Proxy
- You can set the proxy on a per-site (or per browser) basis. That means you can effectively have multiple concurrent exit IP’s (e.g. website A sees your exit IP as the server NL-3, and website B sees your exit IP as SE-1, and all other websites default to DE-4).
#3 is a killer feature in my eyes. It is very flexible and very useful to me and I feel I’ve only scratched the surface so far.

Yeah. All of the features you mentioned seem really interesting to me and I can’t wait to get them setup.
