Proton Expands VPN Accessibility with Free Browser Extension and New Duo Plan

Proton has made significant strides in enhancing its privacy-focused services, unveiling a free VPN browser extension for all users, alongside a new Duo pricing plan. Previously restricted to paid users, the browser extension is now accessible to anyone using Chrome or Firefox. This extension allows users to secure their web browsing without routing their entire internet connection through a VPN, offering flexibility and convenience. The move aligns with Proton’s broader mission of providing accessible privacy tools without compromising on security.

In addition to the extension, Proton has introduced the Duo plan, a new pricing tier designed for two users. Priced at $14.99 per month (billed annually), the plan offers the same benefits as the Unlimited plan, but for two accounts. This includes 1 TB of secure cloud storage, making it an attractive option for couples or small teams looking for comprehensive privacy solutions at a discounted rate.

These updates are part of Proton's ongoing efforts to cater to the growing demand for secure online tools, solidifying its position as a leading provider of privacy-focused services. As online privacy becomes increasingly important, Proton’s latest offerings are likely to resonate with both existing and new users.
