Need Advice on Proxy Setup for Secure Browsing - duraskill - Oct 22, 2024

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to improve my online privacy and was wondering if anyone could share tips or guides on setting up a reliable proxy. I've done a bit of research, but I want to make sure I’m covering all my bases when it comes to security.

Specifically, I’m interested in:

1. Recommendations for proxy services (free vs. paid).
2. How to avoid common pitfalls with setup.
3. Best practices for using proxies without slowing down connection too much.
I've seen a lot of mixed opinions out there, so I'd really appreciate insights from those who have been using proxies for a while. Also, I'm not interested in anything shady—just want to browse more securely. 😊

Thanks in advance!

P.S. If I’ve posted in the wrong category, let me know, and I’ll move it right away.
