Okay, so what is an http proxy server? Think of it as a filter. You ask for a website, the proxy grabs it, and the site sees the proxy’s IP, not yours.
Privacy-wise? Meh. It hides your IP, but your data’s still exposed unless you use HTTPS. Proxies are great for bypassing restrictions (like school wifi lol), but for real privacy, go VPN.
Check out free proxies on ProxyNova—just don’t trust ‘em with passwords.
