## 7 Best VPN Extensions For Chrome

Now we know what a VPN is and how you can use it for your internet browsing needs, let’s take a look at the 7 best VPN extensions you can download for Chrome today.
NordVPN

The NordVPN Chrome extension is a simple but effective service for bypassing geo-restricted website blocks and increasing online privacy. Whatever you do online stays for your eyes, as all your browser traffic will be encrypted with the Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2) protocol.

If you install the supporting app, you'll get access to NordVPN tools such as CyberSec, which will block ads and malware-filled sites.

Pros:

- It is one of the few VPNs that can unblock Netflix, as well as BBC iPlayer and other streaming services. It works with 17 international regions, including the UK, Japan, and Mexico.
- It is one of the fastest VPN services. It allows users to stream video in 4K resolution and HD.
- Its Chrome extension blocks WebRTC communication protocols that rely on JavaScript, which are dangerous because they may leak your IP address and, therefore, your location. 
- Its Chrome extension has a Threat Protection Lite toggle feature, which lets you filter out the websites before they're even loaded and automatically blocks malicious and phishing sites.
- Its features also include split tunneling, allowing users to add specific websites to a list, and the VPN will exclude them when browsing. This is great for online banking, which sometimes returns errors when connecting via VPN.

Cons:

- It only gives users 60 server locations, which is less than some of its competitors. 
- Some navigation elements on the NordVPN app can be tricky on smaller screens like mobiles.
- Prices and plans: NordVPN has a monthly plan, a one-year plan, and a two-year plan. You can buy a Standard, Plus, or Ultimate plan to access different features. Prices range from $4 to $17 a month.

## ExpressVPN

ExpressVPN's Chrome extension is straightforward to use and set up, even if you're new to VPNs. You're fully protected with this extension because it cyphers data using AES-256 encryption and works with WebRTC blocking.

In addition, to stop you from visiting malicious sites, the ExpressVPN Chrome extension will redirect you to more secure HTTPS versions of the sites you're trying to access. 

Pros:

- ExpressVPN customers get a 30-day money-back guarantee on its services.
- There are ExpressVPN servers in 94 countries, making it incredibly easy to access popular streaming platforms wherever you are.
- The service undergoes regular audits and adheres to a strict no-logs policy.
- It has a location spoofing feature, ensuring that geolocation data matches the server IP address location.
- It supports different languages, making it more accessible. 
- Its Threat Manager feature blocks all trackers and other online threats from targeting your data.

Cons: 

- It is more expensive than its closest competitors.
- Unlike some of its competitors, it doesn't have built-in antivirus capabilities.
- Prices and plans: ExpressVPN has a one-month plan, a six-month plan, or a 12-month plan. Prices range from $8.30 to $12.95 a month.
