As a Firefox user: if I want a VPN I'll use an actual VPN. Focus on making a great browser, and not all this distraction. Also, "free": "If you're not paying for it, you're the product being sold"
Mozilla only makes the integration between the browser and the VPN, not the VPN network itself - Mozilla VPN is white label Mullvad.
I often use Opera browser's free proxy they offer for basic browsing or blocked sites. They advertise it as a free VPN but it's merely a proxy. As far as I know, it's unlimited traffic and you can choose the region it connects to. Edge also has some Microsoft VPN with a very small amount of bandwidth for the free tier. I'm fine with this kind of stuff as long as people are aware it doesn't offer the same connectivity…
What's the difference when you're accessing it through a browser?

Are you talking about it not reaching out and affecting other programs, or is there a restriction within the browser?

This must apply to Firefox itself, right?
Could they please stop integrating services into Firefox? Thank you.
Now, from the people who brought you Pocket. Could they please stop integrating services into Firefox? Thank you.
Sadly no countries are mentioned where such VPN is really needed (due to strict internet censorship).

Why do you think google buys the rights to firefox's search bar (as a default setting)?
As I understand it, it is just like in Opera. So a proxy not a VPN. I honestly find it distasteful that they may call it a VPN without it actually being one.
