Powell Jeromy (ID: 000000343bde3cf0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/27/2023 I use PrivacyWall for my searches everyday to keep my searches completely private. I love the PrivateView feature next to each search results link, especially for privately viewing webpages without exposing my IP address to the websites I visit, and without having to pay for a VPN.

Gita Mainali (ID: 000000286229e834) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/01/2021 PrivayWall is not a FAKE! It is a powerful tool/technology to protect your Personal, business & financial information. Must add in your chrome!!

Nguyễn Đình An (ID: 000000dd698beb0d) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/17/2021 This extension is a FAKE!!, do not LISTEN to the ABOVE REVIEWS, they are only ALT ACCOUNTS OF THE OWNER, THERE IS ONLY 7 RATING AND 99% of THEM IS FAKE.

De Google (ID: 000000131c5edcad) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/13/2020 🙌The Best! 💘 I don't want my searches to be tracked and PrivacyWall is the app for me. I don't want anyone tracking me or tracking where my kids go.🐱‍🚀 Thanks for keeping me safe! 🎉What I really like is that I can click on PrivateView and visit any webpage I want 🤙 without giving up my IP address. I don't have to install a sketchy VPN to get privacy for free. PrivacyWall offers maps too so that's really nice 🗺. I hate how Google Maps tracks every search I do so they can sell where I'm going to the highest bidder. That is so sketchy! My son told me "Google is just so sus!" 😊

Thomas Moran (ID: 00000002f47143bd) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/05/2020 Super easy to use and super secure! Keeping my searches private is important because I work at home, and I use my computer for both work and play. I don't want my employer snooping on me and PrivacyWall keeps my data safe from being tracked. PrivateView hides my IP address from websites. I use PrivateView whenever I don't want to leave a trail of websites I visited on my computer. This is the perfect privacy extension and I recommend it to my besties.
