Suffers from the same issue as FoxyProxy Standard - the proxy doesn't disable when you pick the "Disable" option. The only proxy server I have in it is constantly on, and I can't disable it without disabling the entire extension in browser settings.

No VPN and thus you cant unlock. The VPN Is not free and thus misleading and not worth it. I rather use a VPN that did change IP's and thus unblock sites.
