don,t see VPN icon

Hi,
The Firefox built-in VPN is offered in stages to users in the US, UK, Germany and France (starting with Firefox version 149), and in Canada starting with Firefox version 150. It may not be available to you yet, even if you’re in one of these locales, as the staged rollout takes time to reach everyone.
If the built-in VPN is available, you would see a VPN icon in the top-right corner of the toolbar, which opens a prompt to turn on the VPN. You would also need to sign in to a Mozilla account. For more information, see the Use built-in VPN in Firefox article.
If you wish, you can post your feedback about the Firefox built-in VPN to the Mozilla Connect thread.
The about:config preference browser.ipProtection.enabled controls if the VPN button shows up or not. Most likely it's set to false. Toggling it to true should turn it on. Apparently it is on a progressive roll-out.
Here's a Reddit thread that talks about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1s2ik4l/introducing_firefoxs_builtin_vpn_ip_protection/
