Can someone explain the meaning of 'proxied by' in simple terms? or What exactly does 'proxied by' me

Yo, it’s like when you send your friend to grab snacks for you instead of going yourself. The proxy (your friend) gets the stuff and brings it back.

In tech, "proxied by" means traffic is going through another server before reaching the destination. Could be for privacy, caching, or blocking sketchy requests.

Sites like whatismyip.com can show if you’re behind a proxy.
