Не понятно как зарегистрироваться. В расширении и на сайте нет страницы для регистрации.

Sad to see FoxyProxy is now nothing but a scam. The site clearly states: "Change your IP address by selecting from a list of countries and flags. Integrates seamlessly with your FoxyProxy VPN/Proxy account, although an account is not necessary. The poor ratings on Google Play are primarily because users believe they must purchase a FoxyProxy account in order to use GeoShift." Which is a direct contradiction of the description of this extension. Pure trash

It requires registration! However "The poor ratings on Google Play are primarily because users believe they must purchase a FoxyProxy account in order to use GeoShift."
