- Rated 1 out of 5by ff_extension_reviewer, 3 years agoDoes not work in FireFox. 9 in 10 times it does not connect, the remaining 1 in 10 times it only shows the Indian server (which is across the globe and causes major latency spikes). PIA is aware of these issues and have been "working on it" for years according to research on Google. I would rate this 0 stars if I could because an average of 3.5 is far more than it deserves.

- Rated 1 out of 5by peegies, 4 years agoStates last updated 7 months ago but today whenever I load the plugin, I get a certificate error on every single webpage. Is not a VPN issue because other VPN plugins work. Is not a PIA VPN issue because the application works. But I want the plugin on browser so that I can simultaneously browse under different IP and use my computer without VPN lag
Please fix - Rated 1 out of 5by nihir, 4 years agoThis is broken. It constantly asks you to login while using it. I have had this problem for months and it hasn't been fixed. Considering how many people have the same issue, it's a little hard to grasp why it hasn't been solved yet.
- Rated 1 out of 5by JP, 4 years agoDoesnt function as it should. When I turn it on it requests login on every single tab individually. Useless.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Terravine, 4 years agoThis addon has had issues for months now. Finally fed up with it not working, I decided to clear out everything in firefox - Including cookies, cache, the works. Full wipe and reinstall.
The addon began working again. It connects, stays connected, and everything seems great. The PIA website says you're protected.
Unfortunately, you're not. Checking ipleak, the addon - while now functional - is leaking residential DNS all over the place. No matter what server or settings applied, it will leak your local DNS.
I'm tired of using the Windows app since it interferes with a lot of the games I play. I just want the firefox addon to work before I'm forced to move to Mullvad.
Current status: Leaky DNS.
This problem, as always, does not affect Chromium based browsers such as Brave. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15658891, 4 years agoThe problem with this company, like a lot of VPN companies, is that they try to be too smart and wind up breaking functionality and losing settings on apps. This app is no exception.
It was working just fine, why break it? I'll probably unsubscribe soon. - Rated 1 out of 5by Christopher Z, 4 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by mbsconto, 4 years agoTotally broken, does not connect to any of the listed proxies.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13221270, 4 years agoAddon not working, giving you false sense of security, company sold to some well-known ad sellers 3 months ago, beware
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13543470, 4 years agoAs it stands 04/04/2019 its broken with Firefox, disconnects randomly, doesn’t auto connect on Firefox reboot or start and shows enabled but doesn’t connect clicking the addon shows this.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14800008, 4 years agoUsing containers makes the previous window go to an error screen, so I have to navigate back each time I open a link which opens a page in a container.
- Rated 1 out of 5by eli, 4 years agoLiterally does not work. It says "Connected" but it is not. When I try to turn it off or change servers, it hangs on "Disconnecting" and never actually disconnects, eventually returning to the false "Connected" state.
- Rated 1 out of 5by 0ri, 4 years agoIt's been over a month and they have yet to fix this stupid proxy popup. Have gone as far as reaching out to their support to get lame responses.
