Stellar Proxy

Technically, the ISP cannot block all VPN servers. But it is possible to block some of them. In this case, you can use any other VPN service. But you have to be careful with "free" ones, as they often make money from collecting and selling users' confidential data.

Using a proxy in Telegram refers to the practice of routing your Telegram traffic through an intermediary server, known as a proxy server, to hide your IP address, bypass geographical restrictions, or improve security. There are several reasons why someone might use a proxy with Telegram:

1. Privacy and anonymity: By using a proxy, your real IP address is hidden, making it more difficult for Telegram or other users to track your online activities. This can be useful for maintaining privacy or avoiding potential harassment or stalking.

2. Bypassing geographical restrictions: Some Telegram features or content may be restricted based on your location. A proxy can help you bypass these restrictions by routing your traffic through a server in a different country, allowing you to access content that would otherwise be unavailable.

3. Security: Using a proxy can provide an additional layer of security by acting as a buffer between your device and the Telegram platform. This can help protect your account from potential hacking or unauthorized access.

To use a proxy with Telegram, you will need to configure the Telegram app to use the proxy server's IP address and port number. This can usually be done through the app's settings, under the "Data and Storage" or "Privacy and Security" section.

Disable proxy settings in Windows:

Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog.

Type "inetcpl.cpl" (without quotes) and press Enter to open the Internet Properties window.

In the Internet Properties window, click on the "Connections" tab.

Click on "Lan settings" in the bottom right corner of the window.

In the "Proxy Server" section, select "Automatically detect settings" and uncheck the box for "Use a proxy server for your LAN."

Click "OK" to save the changes and close the window.

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.

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.
