# Chameleon
|
||||
|
||||
[Chameleon](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/chameleon-ext/) is a
|
||||
[Firefox](/wiki/firefox.md) [add-on](/wiki/firefox.md#list-of-useful-firefox-add-ons) that spoofs
|
||||
your browser profile including user agent and screen size.
|
||||
It also can be used to change the [IP address](/wiki/ip_address.md)
|
||||
|
||||
## Spoofing the IP Address
|
||||
|
||||
This add-on can also be used to avoid [geo-blocking](/wiki/ip_address.md#geo-blocking) by selecting
|
||||
IP ranges in the `Headers` tab.
|
||||
The following are example ranges that work well for specific countries.
|
||||
|
||||
- Brazil: `124.81.64.0` to `124.81.127.255`

# IP Address
|
||||
|
||||
The IP address is a numerical label for a computer that is connected to a network using the
|
||||
Internet Protocol (IP).
|
||||
There are two versions of IP addresses: IPv4 and IPv6.
|
||||
|
||||
## Geo-blocking
|
||||
|
||||
Geo-blocking is the practice that restricts access to internet sites or content using information on
|
||||
the users location.
|
||||
This location is often obtained using the IP address.
|
||||
|
||||
Geo-blocking can be evaded by using a [VPN service](/wiki/vpn.md).
|
||||
Sometimes the IP addresses that are used by VPNs are blocked by websites.
|
||||
To avoid this a spoofing tool like [Chameleon](/wiki/chameleon.md) for [Firefox](/wiki/firefox.md)
|
||||
can be used.

||||

|
||||
using the German Bundesliga in Brazil as an example.

||||
Please note that using the VPN for this may violate terms and services accepted by subscribing to
|
||||
a VPN service.
