I’ve been burned by free HTTP proxies too many times. Either they’re logging your traffic or just vanish overnight.
For testing, maybe use a free trial of a premium service instead? Some like Smartproxy offer short trials.
If you’re scraping, check out ScraperAPI—it’s not a proxy, but it handles a lot of the headache for you.
Why do free proxies even exist? Like, what’s their business model? *Side-eyes data harvesting*
