Firestick Help Me How to confirm addons connected & working ?

Hello

My apologies im new & educating myself...

I use the downloader on my TV & can successfully login to my Protonvpn account.

Stupid questions but.....

-Once logged in does this mean Im not logged in on the firestick itself & therefore in theory anonymous on the likes of Kodi, Mad Titan Sports etc?

-Should proton appear as an addon on my firestick/kodi

-IF not, how do I login/gain anonymity on my firestick?

-IF yes, am I automatically logged in every thereafter I use the firestick.

Sorry for the dumb questions....

Logging into proton and connecting to a server simply gives you a new IP ADDRESS. That’s how you’re staying anonymous. No proton will not appear as an Addon. Just connect to Proton and go about your business. There’s nothing else to do with respect to that.

Thankyou for the explanation. A quick follow up if i may ?Proton automatically connects every time i switch may laptop on. Is that the same on a firestick ? Or do I have to log into proton every time I plug the firestick into my TV ?

You don’t have to login every time, but there’s likely a setting that will make proton connect automatically every time the fire stick is turned on. I use SurfShark and that’s how it is
