## Description

CDN POP Detector is a browser extension that helps users detect the Content Delivery Network (CDN) and its Points of Presence (POP) used by the current website. By analyzing HTTP response headers and DNS records, the extension identifies common CDN providers (such as Cloudflare, Akamai, Fastly, etc.) and displays relevant information, including POP locations and icons. It supports both Firefox, making it ideal for developers, network analysts, and users interested in website performance.
