Hey! So, to answer your question, *can other people connect to the proxy i set up*? Yeah, they totally can if it’s not locked down. If you didn’t set up any authentication (like a password) or restrict access by IP, it’s basically open for anyone who finds it.
For secure sharing, you can use IP whitelisting (only allow specific IPs) or set up a username/password combo. Tools like Squid Proxy make this pretty easy.
To check who’s connected, you can use `netstat` or `ss` on Linux. If you’re on Windows, there are tools like CurrPorts that show active connections.
Hope that helps!
