What free, ad free, account free, free unlimited bandwidth VPN (aka proxy) browsers do you know of?
o Since I use Android, Windows, & iOS (in that order), here's what I know of:
  Android: <https://i.postimg.cc/WpM4FM5t/web01.jpg>
  Windows: <https://i.postimg.cc/hjjVXkq5/taskbarmenu07.jpg>
  iOS: <https://i.postimg.cc/LXzB3Lc0/appleid01.jpg>

o Opera browser with free VPN, by Opera 
  Android: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.browser>
  Windows: <https://www.opera.com>
  iOS: <???I didn't see an Opera VPN browser on the Apple App Store???>
       <https://www.opera.com/mobile>

  Note: Mobile setup for full-time VPN is a multi-step non-intuitive process:
  <https://mashtips.com/enable-free-vpn-opera-browser-android/>

  See detailed critical review here:
  <https://www.michalspacek.com/opera-browsers-vpn-is-just-a-proxy>

  See also:
  o Woo hoo! As of March 27th 2019,the mobile version of the Opera browser finally has VPN support
    <https://groups.google.com/g/alt.comp.freeware/c/XkKAeGFz4fQ/>

o Epic Privacy Browser, by Hidden Reflex
  Android: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epic.browser>
  Windows: <https://www.epicbrowser.com>
  iOS: <https://apps.apple.com/us/app/epic-privacy-browser-w-vpn/id1502032811>

  Note: With the later versions, you need to install the proxy extension.

o Tenta Private VPN Browser + Ad Blocker (Beta), by AVG Labs (aka Avast)
  Android: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tenta.android>
  Windows: Not Available
  iOS: Not Available

  Note: They are, apparently, working on a Windows & iOS version:
        <https://tenta.com/platform-support?platform=windows?platform=windows> 

o Aloha Browser Lite - Private browser and free VPN, by Aloha Mobile
  Android: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alohamobile.browser.lite>
  Windows: Not Available <https://thetechmirror.com/aloha-browser-for-windows/>
  iOS: <https://apps.apple.com/au/app/aloha-browser-private-vpn-tor/id1105317682>

  Canonical web page: <https://alohabrowser.com/>

  Note: Be advised, confusingly so, there are multiple aloha Android variants:
  <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alohamobile.browser.lite> Ad free
  <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aloha.browser> Contains Ads
  <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alohamobile.browser> Contains Ads
  <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alohamobile.vpn> VPN client
  etc.
  In addition to apps named Aloha from other companies.

  o Aloha Web Browser for iPhone and iPad in 2020
    <https://www.igeeksblog.com/aloha-browser-iphone-ipad/>

Honorable Mention (as an onion browser isn't the same as a proxy browser):
o Tor Browser: Official, Private, & Secure, by The Tor Project
  Android: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.torproject.torbrowser>
  Windows: <https://www.torproject.org/download/> 
  iOS: Not available <https://support.torproject.org/tormobile/tormobile-3/>

Similar, but probably scams:
o UR Browser, by AdaptiveBee
  Android: Not available
  Windows: <https://www.ur-browser.com>
  iOS: Not available 

  See detailed critical review here (caveat emptor):
  <https://www.michalspacek.com/ur-browser-vpn-and-other-tales>

  Note: The 500MB/month VPN appears to be free, but you must create an account; 
        but I don't think you need anything more than a valid email for that.

Similar, but contains Ads:
o Pico Browser - Unblock Free VPN Proxy Browser, by Pico Browser (Contains Ads)
  Android: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pico.browser>
  Windows: <?>
  iOS: <?>

  See also:
  o Pico Browser - Unblock Free VPN Proxy Browser
    <https://downloads.zdnet.com/product/2150-78370127/>

Similar, but different concept (as it adds "Tor" but not "VPN/Proxy"):
o Brave Private Browser & VPN, by Brave Software (with Tor on Windows)
  Android: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brave.browser>
  Windows: <https://brave.com/download/> (note the addition of Tor on Windows)
  iOS: <https://apps.apple.com/us/app/brave-private-web-browser/id1052879175>
  Note: I think the Guardian VPN is not free.
  See also:
  o How do you start the freeware Brave browser in Tor mode from a Windows desktop/taskbar shortcut?
  <https://groups.google.com/g/alt.comp.microsoft.windows/c/82CyFJeWwTs>

Any proxy browser (most suck, if not all, & most if not all, have ads anyway):
o Azka Anti Block Browser - Unblock without VPN, by VPN Tech Studio (Contains Ads)
  <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.azka.browser.anti.blokir>
o Free Unblock Sites VPN Proxy Browser, by mobiledevca (Contains Ads)
  <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.getfilefrom.browserproxy>

Any proxy web page (there are zillions out there):
o (e.g., <https://www.hidemyass.com/en-us/proxy>)

Can't find:
o Globus VPN Browser
  <https://globus-vpn-browser.en.lo4d.com/windows>
  <https://www.thewindowsclub.com/globus-free-vpn-tor-browser>

In summary, this thread is opened to be purposefully helpful, as always, 
in adding value, where the request is the combined knowledge of the ng
to further flesh out what I have stated, off the cuff, ad hoc, above:

Q: What other free, ad free, account free, free unlimited bandwidth 
   VPN (aka proxy) browsers do you, off hand, yourself know of?
    Android: <https://i.postimg.cc/WpM4FM5t/web01.jpg>
    Windows: <https://i.postimg.cc/hjjVXkq5/taskbarmenu07.jpg>
    iOS: <https://i.postimg.cc/LXzB3Lc0/appleid01.jpg>

Posted out of the goodness of my heart to always add value on Usenet.
