Residential proxy explained: Boost privacy & access

When you connect online, your IP address is like a name tag, and every unique devices has one. But it's not just a name tag: it's an indicator of where you are in the world, and thus what will determine what you can or cannot access online. Unfortunately, the internet is far from open: walls are everywhere blocking people from accessing information and content across borders.

Residential proxies are one solution to this problem of information access. Residential proxies route your internet traffic through the real devices of other people with ISP-issued IP addresses, making your online presence appear more natural and harder to block. This is different than a Virtual Private Network (VPN) which routes your traffic through a commercially server database which can be more easily identified by censorship agencies.
