Protect your identity online, browse safe

After moving back to my own Country from United States of America, i tried couple of sites on my homeland, they are either blocked or that particular feature in that site is not accessible from my Country, they restricted the access only to US locations.

After spending sometime online found ZenMate Plugin for Firefox. Using this plugin you can protect your identity, browse safe, change your Country of preference and your traffic is encrypted as well.

You may be in your homeland browsing a site and if you want the traffic from your connection has to appear as USA to the serving host, you just need to have ZenMate Plugin and set your location in ZenMate. You can change your location to USA, Hong Kong, Romania, or Germany these options are available for free for rest of the Countries you need to have Premium plugin.

I tried google.com/voice and want to port my mobile number to my google voice number on google Chrome browser as in Fig1,  it seems the porting option is available only to US locations and the error message also is not very clear, then I tried the same url with ZenMate plugin enabled on Firefox and changed my location to USA as in Fig 2, the porting option was going through fine and Im not getting any error message from google voice :-) as in Fig.3

Compared to VPN & other proxy sites, ZenMate seems to be a great option. Enjoy!
