Yandex Browser is a secure browser with built-in Protect protection. It stands out for its speed and user-friendly interface, but it does not have the ability to enable VPN without third-party programs. Fortunately, there are a large number of extensions for this that allow you to work with this browser in anonymous mode.
Browsec
Browsec is an English-language project, the most widespread in the countries of America, and is also available for download in Russia. The extension can be downloaded and added to the browser from the developer's official website. The application is available for almost all browsers, including Yandex, Google, Opera and Mozila. Installation is also possible on Android and iOS.
Of the advantages, it is worth noting the fast connection speed even with a long distance between the servers, maintaining a high level of security, and availability. The extension is free and does not charge any service fees.
Hola
The simplest program on the list will be Hola !, which can be downloaded from the official website or from the Google extension store. The extension is famous for its simple interface and quick installation. In order to activate the VPN, you just need to select the required country from the list, to whose servers the connection will be configured. Unfortunately, the list of countries in free access is very limited - the user will not be able to connect to the servers of South America, Africa and Central Asia. This problem will be solved in the paid plan.
The main disadvantage of the program is interruptions in work. Occasionally, the extension may terminate the connection, or simply disconnect. Also, the peculiarity lies in the fact that in the "Incognito" mode the application is not available and will not work.
Hola! is available on Android and iOS, but requires a monthly fee on those platforms.
FriGate
FriGate is an extension for Yandex Browser, Google Chrome, Opera and Mozilla Firefox. The program is available for download on the developer's website or in the Google extension store absolutely free. The program is primarily designed to bypass blocking sites on the territory of a certain country through a proxy server.
The program is best suited for more experienced Internet users, since in new versions, after massive blocking by the government, the proxy list now needs to be written independently. Without this, the extension will throw an error.
After starting, the client will automatically open the settings, where you will need to enter the proxy:
[Next, you need to switch to the "Sites" tab and enter the address of one or several sites at once. The extension will then connect to them without any problems.
Of the minuses, it is worth noting the slow Internet speed. The rest of the extension performs well.
