What our analysis found

Free VPN For Chrome & Ad blocker — Planet VPN, used by 1,000,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites, can inject scripts into pages and can observe network requests. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in September 2026.

Analyst notes

The extension is a VPN and ad blocker with permissions necessary for its functionality. The reviewed source files contain no malicious code: content scripts only communicate with the extension's background, offscreen fetch is used for internal purposes (likely auth pings), ad-block rules are standard lists, and the publisher is trusted with a high reputation. The ML risk score is low (0.00), and the third-party risk engine's 'critical' flags are due to required permissions, not misuse.
