geoip
Match timezone, locale, geolocation and WebRTC IP to the proxy's exit IP.
Use it for: Any session behind a proxy in another country: timezone, locale and geolocation follow the exit IP, so the persona doesn't contradict its own address.
Browsers: Camoufox.
Details
- Type:
boolean - Default: true
- Example:
{"geoip":false}
At launch the browser looks up its public IP through your proxy and aligns its identity with that location. Set false to skip the lookup (faster start, but the location won't match the IP).
If the proxy can't reach the IP lookup services, the launch fails.
