At Mozilla, online privacy has always been one of our top priorities. Recently we announced Total Cookie Protection on Firefox Focus<\/a> to combat cross-site tracking, and last year we introduced Firefox Relay<\/a>, a privacy-first product that hides your real email address to help protect your identity. We are always looking for ways to offer privacy within our family of products and, after a successful rollout in English in November we\u2019re combining one of our users\u2019 favorite Firefox Add-ons, Multi-Account Containers<\/a>, with Mozilla VPN<\/a>, our fast and easy-to-use VPN service, to offer a unique, privacy solution that is only available in Firefox. In addition, today\u2019s Mozilla VPN<\/a> release includes the multi-hop feature available on Android and iOS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How your online life gets more private on Mozilla VPN with Firefox Multi-Account Containers Add-on<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2017, we created an Add-on called Multi-Account Containers<\/a> to help you separate each of your online lives. Instead of opening a new window or different browser to check your work email, you could easily separate that activity in a container tab. We created tab-specific containers like personal, work, shopping, banking and social media and added options so you can personalize it by color, logo or a different name. Behind the scenes, the websites and their cookies are isolated from the other containers thus allowing you to sign into two different accounts on the same site (one for work and one for personal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Multi-Account Containers<\/a> Add-on has had more than thousands of users who\u2019ve called it a \u201cproductivity hack,\u201d \u201csimply phenomenal,\u201d and \u201cperfect for privacy.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

By combining Firefox\u2019s Multi-Account Containers<\/a> with Mozilla VPN, we\u2019re adding an extra layer of privacy by protecting your browsing activity and enabling you to set a different exit server in a different location for each of your containers. For example you are traveling for work and using your computer to check your work email from Paris, France but want to also check your personal banking accounts in New York City. That\u2019s where you can separate your work and personal finances\u2019 online activity with Multi-Account Containers<\/a> plus the added privacy of the Mozilla VPN<\/a> and choosing from over 400 servers in 30 countries. For those who aren\u2019t yet ready for travel and are keeping in touch with family and friends through emails and video, you can set one of your containers to shopping and change the server to the nearest city of your loved ones\u2019 home and check out local shops to have flowers or a meal delivered to their home for that special occasion or just to say hello. The possibilities are endless to how Firefox\u2019s Multi-Account Containers<\/a> Add-on and Mozilla VPN<\/a> work. To learn about how the Multi-Account Containers<\/a> Add-on works with the Mozilla VPN<\/a>, you can read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mozilla\u2019s VPN multi-hop feature now available on Android and iOS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In September we introduced our multi-hop feature<\/a> on desktop where you can use two VPN servers instead of one VPN server. This powerful privacy feature is very helpful for people who are ultra-conservative when it comes to privacy and includes folks like political activists, journalists writing about sensitive topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mozilla\u2019s VPN mutli-hop feature works by first routing your online activity through one VPN server, the entry VPN server. Then, it routes it another time through a second VPN server – the exit VPN server. Here\u2019s a step-by-step guide to turn it on<\/a>. Use this extra privacy feature on your mobile devices wherever and whenever you go online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mozilla VPN tops Consumer Reports\u2019 VPN testing <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In December, Consumer Reports evaluated 16 VPN service providers and Mozilla VPN was listed as one of the top VPNs that Consumer Reports would feel most comfortable using themselves or suggesting to a friend<\/a>. Their evaluations looked at several VPN service providers to see how they protected users\u2019 security and privacy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
