Geospoof: a firefox add-on for convenient geolocation privacy
Privacy Guides Community [Unofficial]
June 6, 2026
GeoSpoof v1.19.9 is now out on Firefox (soon to be on Chrome store and Safari) with a brand new feature.
Sync with VPN is now automatic. Previously, when you switched your VPN to a new server you had to open GeoSpoof and press Re-sync to move your spoofed location to match. Now GeoSpoof notices when your exit IP changes and re-syncs on its own, usually within a few seconds of your next page load.
It works across browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Brave, Edge) and with both desktop VPN apps and browser-extension VPNs.
A few details:
- It re-checks your public IP as you browse, only doing the work when the IP has actually changed, so it stays light and won’t hammer anything in the background.
- Re-sync is still there if you want to force an update the instant you switch, rather than waiting for it to catch up.
- One thing to expect: a page you already had open when you switched servers may need a refresh and cooldown to pick up the new location due to some debouncing time (about 10 seconds) to prevent API throttling. Pages you open afterward get it automatically.
Please let me know about any bugs or regressions. I did testing but would love some feedback on my GitHub Issues page. Thanks
