What Are HTTP Proxies and How Do They Work? or Can Someone Explain What Are HTTP Proxies? or

thanks for all the replies, guys! super helpful breakdowns.

i tried croxyproxy like someone suggested, and it worked for watching a geo-blocked vid. kinda slow tho—is that normal?

also, if proxies don’t encrypt, would using one + a VPN make sense? or is that overkill?

appreciate the tips on avoiding shady free ones too. definitely not trying to get malware lmao.
