Common users can use proxies to bypass blocking, to protect their personal data and to hide their real IP address or data about the equipment they use. But network administrators use them to analyze network traffic and test web applications.

If you plan to use a proxy every day, it is recommended to pay attention to paid services. There, the connection is as reliable as possible, with no bandwidth limitations. However, the performance of numerous free proxies is not guaranteed.
