[Extension Request] Switch my country/location extension

VPN
1

I am from Brazil, and i don’t like sites seeing I’m from Brazil and giving me a Brazilian version for their site. For example, I just wanted to see what was the Tacobell menu on the US.

But seaching “Tacobell.com” immediately gives me “Tacobellbrasil.com.br”; and mostly when sites do this they don’t give you the option to switch the country or even the language, and I’m pretty sure Nickelodeon does the exact same thing.

(I don’t eat Tacobell, and I wouldn’t want to order from a pc browser, this is just an example from the most time I was forced to only use the Brazilian version of the site)

So I would like to use an extension that i can use to switch my location when sites do this ““country discrimination””, or at least i want to find any way that allows me to access sites with this dumb practice, in whatever “country version” I want; Tho mostly just the US version, cause I only have a problem with it when i just want to see what the US version looks like.

Use a VPN and change your location. Windscribe gives 10GB a month free and is reputable…

There’s a desktop version also.

The location comes from your network, not from your browser.

You can use a VPN to fake it.
Alternatively, don’t use a search engine when logged in (I say this because most folks use Google, and then get pissed off when they don’t get unbiased results and cannot control regional results).

Try using SearXNG - you can do it locally - or some other ‘private’ search.

To fake your location, then you need to use a VPN. But if you want to have search results from other locations, then you need to set your location in your search engine… but that is not foolproof.
