Interest in proxy service solutions has accelerated in recent years as more and more people realize the benefits. Businesses and individuals find that they can shield their destination IP address, giving them a layer of privacy.
Users leverage proxy service solutions for scraping and data acquisition, browsing unblocked and undetected websites while comparing prices with competitors, and for SEO research. Individuals can also use proxies to access geo-restricted content and find great deals online for subscriptions and digital goods. People in countries where internet access is heavily restricted and controlled can use proxies to freely express their opinions and also share information. The pandemic has only increased demand, as proxy networks can help individuals and organizations securely access remote resources and connect to crucial data and applications.
Yet a major problem exists with most proxy services – many on the market, and residential proxies in particular, are unethically sourced. Residential proxies are acquired both through an internet service provider – where traffic is routed through the provider’s network – and more generally through the physical devices of ordinary people. Often these end users are unaware that they are participating in this home network. They did not give their consent. Recently, a proxy provider infected millions of devices with its malware, selling proxies “for every need”.
Ethically sourced proxy service solutions offer a better, more principled alternative. With over 2,849,053 IP addresses, IPRoyal has a residential proxy network made up of real IP addresses transparently sourced from real users who have provided consent.

For businesses and individuals, the proxy provides valuable anonymity by hiding a person’s IP address, replacing it with the proxy’s own IP address, as well as the location of a person or entity. company and other identifiable data. This provides an additional layer of security that can significantly reduce the risk of cyberattacks.
