Can someone explain what is wifi proxy and how it works?

Thanks, everyone! This really helped clear things up. I tried using NordVPN like someone suggested, and it’s pretty easy to set up. My connection did feel a bit slower, but it’s not too bad.

I’m still a little confused about how a wifi proxy is different from a regular proxy, though. Like, does it only work on WiFi networks, or can you use it on mobile data too?

Also, are there any free options that don’t slow things down too much? I’d love to test it out more without committing to a paid service yet. Thanks again!
