Public proxy servers for privacy? Eh, they’re kinda hit or miss. Sure, they hide your IP, but like you said, free ones are sketchy af. I’ve had my data logged before—never again.
If you’re just casually browsing, maybe it’s fine, but for real privacy, a VPN is way better. Check out ProtonVPN or Windscribe—they have free tiers that don’t suck.
Also, avoid random proxy lists. Sites like HideMyAss *claim* to be safe, but who knows?
