Hop Proxy

It's a router that redirects all traffic through a VPN server. Many router models support this function, you only need to specify the data for connecting to a particular VPN (that is, enter the parameters that will provide a VPN service). And some manufacturers provide such routers, in which all settings are already prescribed (the developers themselves provide a VPN-service or are representatives of such).

Chromium does not support proxies in-house. There is a corresponding item in the menu, but clicking on it will open the regular proxy server settings in Windows or MacOS.

To scrape images in C#, you can use the HTMLAgilityPack library for parsing HTML and retrieving image URLs. Here's a basic example

Install HTMLAgilityPack

You can install the HTMLAgilityPack NuGet package using the following command in the Package Manager Console:

Install-Package HtmlAgilityPack

Write a C# script to scrape images:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using HtmlAgilityPack;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        string url = "https://example.com"; // Replace with the URL of the page you want to scrape images from

        // Download HTML content from the URL
        HtmlWeb web = new HtmlWeb();
        HtmlDocument document = web.Load(url);

        // Extract image URLs
        List imageUrls = ExtractImageUrls(document, url);

        // Print the extracted image URLs
        foreach (string imageUrl in imageUrls)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(imageUrl);
        }
    }

    static List ExtractImageUrls(HtmlDocument document, string baseUrl)
    {
        List imageUrls = new List();

        // Select image elements using XPath
        var imageElements = document.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//img[@src]");

        if (imageElements != null)
        {
            foreach (var imageElement in imageElements)
            {
                // Extract image URL from the src attribute
                string imageUrl = imageElement.GetAttributeValue("src", "");

                // Make the URL absolute if it's a relative URL
                imageUrl = new Uri(new Uri(baseUrl), imageUrl).AbsoluteUri;

                // Add the URL to the list
                imageUrls.Add(imageUrl);
            }
        }

        return imageUrls;
    }
}

This script uses HTMLAgilityPack to load the HTML content of a webpage and extract image URLs using XPath. The ExtractImageUrls method selects image elements with the XPath query "//img[@src]", retrieves the src attribute, and converts relative URLs to absolute URLs.

Run the script:

Replace the url variable with the URL of the webpage you want to scrape images from.

Run the script to see the list of image URLs.

While using Selenium for web automation, it's important to note that websites can detect the presence of automation tools, including Selenium. To reduce the chances of detection, you can take certain measures to make your Selenium-driven browser instance appear more like a regular user. Here are some techniques to hide Selenium from the browser

1. User Agent Spoofing

Change the user agent of the browser to mimic that of a real user. This can be done by setting the user agent string before launching the browser:

from selenium import webdriver

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/91.0.4472.124 Safari/537.36")

driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)

2. Window Size and Position

Set the window size and position to common values used by human users. This can be done using the set_window_size and set_window_position methods:

driver.set_window_size(1366, 768)
driver.set_window_position(0, 0)

3. Disable Browser Extensions

Disable browser extensions to make the browser instance more similar to a clean user profile:

options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")

4. Headless Mode

Run the browser in headless mode, which means it runs without a graphical user interface. Headless mode can be less likely to be detected:

options.add_argument("--headless")

5. Disable Images and CSS

Some automation detection mechanisms analyze whether images and CSS are loaded. You can disable them:

prefs = {"profile.managed_default_content_settings.images": 2, "profile.managed_default_content_settings.stylesheet": 2}
options.add_experimental_option("prefs", prefs)

6. Change Automation Flags

Some websites use JavaScript to detect automation. You can experiment with changing the values of WebDriver-related flags:

options.add_argument("--disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled")

7. Use Proxies

Rotate IP addresses using proxies to mimic different users accessing the site.

In AnyDesk, in order to ensure maximum security of transmitted traffic, you can use proxies, including encryption of traffic. The setting is made through the regular menu of the application. You will need to go to "Options", select "Connection", specify the proxy and port number. Connection is made automatically after that.
