What is proxy setting? It’s like a detour for your internet traffic. Instead of going straight to a site, you take a pit stop at the proxy server.
Handy for:
- Privacy (no one sees your real IP)
- Testing localized content
- Avoiding IP bans (for, uh, *reasons*)
Try Oxylabs or IPRoyal if you’re serious about it.
