n ascentt (ID: 000000ea67c3094b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/19/2024 Works perfectly. Found an ip address for a proxy service in the country I want to get websites to show the languages for (geolocation) and it works perfectly. edit: i've noticed it blocks hcapcha from completing all of a sudden so this needs to be disabled whenever you get an hcapcha puzzle. Currently no way to whitelist hcpacha sites and have to manually disable. 5 years later edit: PLEASE ADD THE ABILITY TO EXCLUDE SOME SITES HAVE TO CONSTANTLY TOGGLE THE WHOLE ADDON ON AND OFF CAUSE IT BREAKS SITES LIKE PLAYSTATION.COM
