"How Effective Are Rotating Proxies for Web Scraping and Privacy?"
Hey everyone, been testing rotating proxies for a while now and wanted to share my thoughts. For web scraping, they’re a game-changer—switching IPs on the fly keeps you under the radar way better than static ones.
But here’s the thing: not all rotating proxies are equal. Some get flagged super fast, while others barely make a dent in your success rate. And for privacy? Mixed bag. They help, but if the provider logs your data, it’s kinda pointless.
Anyone else notice certain sites catch on quicker than others? Also, how often do you guys rotate? Every request feels overkill, but too slow and you’re busted.
Curious to hear your experiences!
