Subscribe to our newsletter Amnezia VPN Free is now officially available for users located in Brazil The free version only tunnels traffic for specific blocked websites and apps The launch comes as Brazil has enforced new mandatory age checks Open-source privacy provider Amnezia VPN has announced that its free VPN service is now officially available to users in Brazil. The launch aims to provide an accessible, zero-cost workaround for citizens navigating changes in the country's internet landscape.

Announced via the company's official X account , the rollout is specifically tailored to the Brazilian market. Unlike the full-service Amnezia Premium , which encrypts all device traffic and allows users to spoof their location across 20 global locations, Amnezia Free utilizes a highly targeted approach. The free tier uses split-tunneling to route only specific, socially important websites and apps through the encrypted tunnel. All other internet traffic remains on the user's regular connection, utilizing their actual IP address. The expansion into South America arrives at a critical time for digital
rights in the region. Demand for the best VPN services has skyrocketed

The application is completely ad-free and relies on the provider's custom AmneziaWG protocol.

Built as an open-source offshoot of WireGuard , the AmneziaWG protocol is explicitly designed to resist network blocking. It dynamically alters the appearance of traffic, making it highly resilient against the deep packet inspection (DPI) techniques often used by internet service providers and government censors to detect and block VPN usage.

If a Brazilian user discovers that a vital website is blocked and not currently supported by the free tier, they can request its inclusion by emailing Amnezia's support team.

However, the company's policy explicitly states that it will not unblock resources containing "immoral, potentially dangerous, or inappropriate content."

For users who require system-wide encryption, the ability to bypass
geo-blocks for streaming libraries, or support for P2P downloading, the provider notes that a classic, premium VPN is still required. A growing reputation for anti-censorship Amnezia has steadily built a strong reputation within the cybersecurity community as a reliable tool for circumventing internet restrictions. The open-source nature of the project means its code
is publicly available for independent experts to review, ensuring transparency.

Its effectiveness in hostile network environments has even caught the attention of major global tech platforms. Recently, Meta's messaging giant WhatsApp officially named Mullvad and Amnezia VPN as go-to tools for
bypassing censorship , recommending the service to users who find themselves abruptly cut off from the communication app.

With its arrival in Brazil, Amnezia Free is positioning itself as a secure option for those worried about the privacy implications of sharing their sensitive data to access age-gated content.

By keeping the service completely free and easy to operate, requiring just a single tap to connect, the provider is cementing its core mission promote a free and open internet for all.
