SecuryBrowse: Secure Your Online Search & Browsing

"Secured Connection by SecuryBrowse" is a Chrome extension that offers enhanced search privacy and secures your browsing by routing your connection through a US-based server. It shields you from potential eavesdroppers and harmful MITM attacks. With a simple 'safe tunnel on' or 'safe tunnel off' command, you can activate or deactivate this secure browsing mode. Besides encryption, it also changes your default search to provide privacy-enhanced results through Yahoo.
