Private Internet Access for Chrome

Private Internet Access is one of the most popular VPN services in the world, for a number of reasons. It offers fast download speed, great encryption, support for P2P and a strict no-logging policy.

Private Internet Access for Chrome enables subscribers to take advantage of the service directly from their browsers, which is very handy when you can’t or don’t want to use a system-wide VPN.

PIA is one of the oldest VPN providers on the market, and they have offered a reliable VPN service for many years. Among the advantages, we can mention very fast download speed, excellent encryption capabilities and support for P2P.

The company also has a strict policy of not logging user traffic, which has been proven to be true on several occasions when such information was requested by US authorities.

Nevertheless, it is worth keeping in mind that the company is located in the United States, a founding member of the Five Eyes Intelligence Alliance. Since the VPN does not store traffic logs, this shouldn’t be an issue, but it is a factor you need to take into consideration.

Right off the bat, you can tell that the extension was designed to be as intuitive as possible. A simple switch can be used to turn the service on or off, and you can see your virtual location and select a new one from the main window.

Numerous servers are available in a wide range of locations around the world. You can sort them based on name or latency, as well as add your preferred ones to the favorites list.

If you’ve used the desktop application already, everything we’ve covered so far should be familiar. However, Private Internet Access for Chrome also offers WebRTC blocking, and it allows you to add certain websites to a VPN whitelist.

In-depth customization of the extension’s security, privacy and tracking prevention features is also possible, which we can only appreciate.

On the whole, Private Internet Access for Chrome is an excellent extension for users who want to use the popular VPN service in Chrome or other Chromium-based browsers. It is a great option when you want to browse the web securely but prefer not to use a system-wide VPN.
