Overview
- Vivaldi's desktop browser now includes Proton VPN, offering free access to medium-speed servers in five randomly selected countries.
- The integration requires users to log in with a Vivaldi or Proton account and is limited to protecting browsing activity within the browser.
- Proton VPN’s free tier has no bandwidth limits, no ads, and adheres to a strict no-logs policy, with paid plans providing faster speeds and broader server access.
- The collaboration highlights shared European values of privacy and independence, aiming to challenge the dominance of US Big Tech.
- Future expansion to Vivaldi’s mobile browser is under consideration, though no timeline has been confirmed.
