OP here—thanks for all the replies! Super helpful breakdowns. Didn’t realize how sketchy free proxies could be lol.
Tried NordVPN based on the recs, and it’s way slower than my usual proxy for streaming, but the peace of mind’s nice.
Quick follow-up: anyone know if there’s a middle ground? Like a VPN that doesn’t throttle speed as much? Or is that just how it is?
