Mullvad, IVPN, and Mozilla VPN Top Consumer Reports’ VPN Testing

Mozilla and Mullvad both have kill switches, and IVPN allows you to enable a kill switch in the form of an always-on firewall option. Kill switches protect user traffic by automatically disconnecting a user’s device if the VPN connection fails.

Best Free Firewalls for Windows, Mac & Android in 2024

All things considered, though, OpenDNS Home is a great free solution to improve online safety.

BBCan 9 - Post-Premiere Discussion - March 4, 2021
Its only €5 per month -- you can also get the https://vpn.mozilla.org/ from Firefox. US$4.99/month if you're in the US, the UK, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore and Malaysia. Source: about 3 years ago
Paying features for Mozilla ecosystem
It's coming Mozilla VPN (vpn.mozilla.org), on which you have to pay in order to use it. I'm agree with you, Mozilla has to stop its dependency on Google and the only way is privacy-focused products (as a VPN). Source: about 3 years ago

Multiple DDNS configs?
I've been using the DDNS option in the UI to sync with no-ip.com, so that I can remotely access my NAS via Wireguard, and this works great.

I need another DDNS client to sync with opendns.com, to get content filtering and parental controls, as my new router has no options for this. Source: 12 months ago
Evaluating DNSfilter
We have used opendns.com for this for years. Might take a look at them. Source: about 1 year ago
What does this error message mean? How/where do I change the URL?
Can you visit opendns.com on your home network? The problem likely that site is getting blocked, and can't use the API to get the public IP of your box. Source: over 1 year ago

This might be an issue with my DNS provider. I use opendns.com to filter my DNS queries. They're giving the following reasons for blocking the site... Source: over 1 year ago
Wi-Fi web filtering
If all users need the same level of filtering, opendns.com is free and works great. You need a way to forward DNS requests to the Open DNS server, such as a typical Windows DNS. Source: about 2 years ago
