Examples 🌈

No response

Motivation 🔦

  • Scraping geo-restricted websites: By leveraging proxies located in different regions, users can access and scrape data from websites that might be restricted based on geographical location.

  • Enhanced privacy: Proxies can anonymize the user's IP address, potentially improving privacy while scraping data.

  • Rotational scraping: Utilizing a pool of proxies allows for distributing scraping requests across different IP addresses, reducing the risk of being flagged by websites.
