More on why you need AdGuard VPN: -Advanced Privacy Protection -Fastest Locations -Speed & Unlimited Traffic -No Logging Policy Why does AdGuard VPN proxy require permissions? Here is detailed information on the permissions our vpn needs. We are always transparent to users about what we use and why we need it. - `proxy` - This is what the extension does. - `contextMenus` - We use this to add a context menu items that allow enabling or disabling the VPN. - `management` - We use this to provide an option to turn off another proxy-extension in one click. - `notifications` - We use this to show a notification after a successful user authentication via social networks. - `privacy` - We use this to provide the “Disable WebRTC” feature which is crucial to prevent websites from detecting user’s real IP address. - `storage`, `unlimitedStorage`- These permissions are required in order to store user settings - `WebRequest`, `webRequestBlocking`- We use these for two purposes. First, we have a webRequest listener that is listening for error events. We use it to detect non-routable (hosted in the LAN, for instance) domains and automatically add them to the list of exclusions. Also, we have an onAuthRequired handler that handles authentication for the endpoints that require it. - `<all_urls>` is necessary because otherwise onAuthRequired won’t fire. Also, this is necessary for the non-routable domains detection feature.
