Mozilla VPN now nudges users to put shields up on dodgy networks, adds LAN access
2021-03-30 19:35

Mozilla's attempts to augment its income continued apace with an update to the company's VPN subscription service.

The update, which has landed less than a year since Mozilla first launched the service, adds two new features.

The second, which has thrown Android into the mix, adds Local Area Network Access permitting devices to talk to each other without having to manually turn off the VPN first.

Mozilla told The Register that "The iOS version is currently in Apple's review cycle and we hope to release it soon."

The cost of the WireGuard-based service remains $4.99 per month, and Mozilla was at pains to insist that it never logs, tracks, or shares network data.

Up to five devices can be connected with one subscription and the company lays claim to servers in more than 30 countries and 40 cities.
