Works from CN, you have to mess with DNS however, as they get randomly blocked, and sometimes you have to switch servers too. I've been using this for years (since 2017) and rarely need to use the desktop app. It gets detected by banks but other services usually accept the provided location. However Google now says that this extension might soon not be supported by Chrome anymore, I hope it gets updated. If you use this extension, you're probably a customer of VPN.AC. Their customer service is pretty quick, and the service works well provided you follow the configuration tutorials. Not fast enough for fps gaming (300+ms ping) but good for anything else with decent speeds, for example YouTube in 4K.
