    • Subject: Firefox Built-in VPN suddenly stopped working**

Hello Mozilla Support,

I am using Firefox version 159.0.1 on Windows.

The built-in Firefox VPN was working properly in Iran until less than 24 hours ago.

Now, when I click the VPN button, a red circle appears and I receive this message:

"Local laws and restrictions limit where you can use VPN."

My selected VPN location is the United States.

My monthly data allowance is still 50 GB out of 50 GB.

I have not changed my Firefox settings.

Could you please explain why the VPN suddenly stopped working and help me resolve this issue?

Thank you.

Hi SH.M.M,

We recently discovered potential abuse of Firefox’s free built-in VPN by unauthorized third-party apps and temporarily disrupted access to investigate. Service has now been restored.

Can you try again and see if it works now?
