Differences between Firefox Private Network (FPN) and the Mozilla VPN

I do not understand just what is the difference between the two services. I did read the FAQ asking if FPN is a VPN or not, but that did not resolve my confusion. How does FPN work? Does it use similar processes as VPN to secure my connection? Is it any more secure than a VPN? The way I understand FPN as it has been described is that it uses a VPN-esc security connection, but for Firefox alone, so I could be anonymous on my browser but any other traffic from my Device is not and could undo the Security of FPN by way of tracking the source of the FPN network flow back to me. I am probably missing something or am overthinking this, if someone could probably provide a visual to help describe it, as I am a primarily a visual person, I may understand this better.

Thank you

Hi

My understanding is that Firefox Private Network covers your browsing just in Firefox, whereas Mozilla VPN covers all web traffic to and from your device.

I hope this helps.
