VPN.AC SecureProxy Extension

SecureProxy browser extension for Chrome provides with the ability to surf the web securely and privately without connecting to a \"classic\" VPN. It works like a browser proxy and all browsing traffic is encrypted through a secure tunnel.

Stealth against Firewall/DPI: when inspected using DPI technologies, the connections using the SecureProxy don't trigger alerts like a classic VPN would usually do.

There is no need to tunnel all your PC traffic through the VPN: you can have the browser tunneling the traffic through our servers and all other traffic sent via your regular ISP connection.

NOTE: You need an active VPN account from https://vpn.ac to connect using this extension.
