## Description

The VPNear extension is a dedicated client designed to connect your browser directly to the VPNear private server infrastructure.

This extension replaces complex manual proxy configurations with a simple, automated interface. It communicates exclusively with VPNear's managed servers to ensure a reliable and secure connection.

CORE FEATURES:

• Dedicated Infrastructure: Unlike peer-to-peer extensions, VPNear connects you to our own high-performance HTTP servers.
• One-Click Location Switching: Automatically fetch and apply proxy settings for your chosen region instantly.
• Privacy Protection: Routes your browser traffic through our secure servers, masking your IP address from third-party websites.
• Minimal Resource Usage: Designed to be lightweight and fast, ensuring your browsing speed remains optimal.

HOW IT WORKS:
1. Select a location from the extension menu.
2. The extension authenticates with the VPNear API.
3. Your browser's proxy settings are automatically updated to route traffic through the selected secure server.
