What’s the Best Way to Set Up a Sock Proxy for Secure Browsing? or Does a Sock Proxy Really Improve P

"Does a sock proxy really improve privacy compared to VPNs?"

Hey guys, been digging into this lately and kinda confused.

I know VPNs are the go-to for privacy, but what about a sock proxy? Heard it’s faster and still keeps things kinda private.

But like... does it *actually* hide your IP as well as a VPN? Or is it more for bypassing geo-blocks?

Also, if I use a sock proxy + HTTPS, am I good enough? Or is that just wishful thinking?

Would love some real-world experiences. Thx!
