Advice Request Can you skip the ZenMate Sign Up and Trial?

[Ink]

After installing the latest version of ZenMate for Chrome, I am prompted with this. If I close and click the ZenMate icon, it shows up again.

Is there any possible to skip this?

I don't want to sign up and verify any email or account.

Unfortunately not. I have an account with ZenMate from a few years ago, they've always needed a sign up.

If i remember correctly last when i was using firefox i installed zenmate and they didnt ask me about email or anything else wonder if that was me or happened to anyone while using firefox.???

I had an account from when they had less than 500 downloads on Chrome Web Store, but deleted it recently after they failed to deliver something for early account holders.

I have uninstalled it from Chrome, but will check it on Firefox in VM.

Forced registration, they've gone downhill.

I dont think you can skip email verification, etc...

I have tried Zenmate extension on Firefox & Chrome.

Chrome - It adds a background service. You will notice it on TaskManager - Startup

Firefox - Guess doesn't add background service...not sure

I run premium desktop version. Speed is not that good & some servers connect fine but doesn't work i.e browsing/page doesn't load. To me it seems few servers are good & not all. For me Austria server works good & some servers doesn't load page & some servers doesn't load some website.

To use VPN with Router, do you have to configure Router for VPN?

Atleast here the experience with the speed, it seems not good for media & torrent download users.

When Zenmate was not that popular and started growing, you didn't need an account or needed to sign up. Since a few months you need to provide that, however temp mail adresses work too if you prefer not to give your 'real' email to them.

Yes, signup dialogs are really a headache. Also sometimes it cannot hide your IP, I found it when the ads being shown were not of the country that I had changed my IP to, but the ads were relavent to my home country. Later when I checked my IP from one of the sites, it showed the real IP.
