What is a distorted proxy and how does it work

Distorting Proxy is a special type of proxy server, whose main function is to provide users with the ability to access the Internet anonymously, while hiding the real IP address and location information of users. By distorting the request sent by the proxy, the target server will see a false IP address, thus increasing the privacy protection of users on the Internet.

How Twisted Proxy Works:

When a user sends a request through a twist proxy, the proxy server receives the request. The proxy server modifies the HTTP header in the request to hide the real IP address of the user. The modified request is sent to the target website, which records the IP address of the proxy server. The target website sends the response back to the proxy server, and the proxy server forwards the response to the user.

Advantages of twisted proxy:

Improve the security level: prevent hackers and cyber criminals from obtaining sensitive information of users on the Internet. Bypass blocked content: You can visit websites that have location-based restrictions. Highly anonymous: the IP address of the user is hidden or masked, providing better privacy protection. High-speed connection: Support fast cache, which helps to reduce loading time and bandwidth usage. It is helpful for network crawling: it can bypass the anti-crawling mechanism of the website and improve the crawling efficiency.

Application scenario of twisted proxy:

Web crawler: used for data mining and network searching, visiting websites that may be blocked or restricted and collecting data. Identity protection: Help users hide their identities when browsing the Internet and prevent identity theft. Caching: used for caching purposes to improve website performance and reduce server load.

It should be noted that although twisted proxies can provide a certain degree of privacy and anonymity, they are not always 100% secure. Sometimes, a webmaster may detect that a user is using a proxy server. In addition, free agents may have potential risks, such as slow speed, instability or malware. Therefore, it is very important to choose a reliable agent provider.
