Node HTTPS Proxy

Open the torrent and through the "Menu" enter the subsection "Connection". Under "Proxy" choose a proxy type (Socks5 is best). In the box "Proxy" put IP address of your proxy, and in the "Port" box, respectively, the port of your proxy. If you are going to use proxy authentication, you will have to give your name and password in the corresponding fields. Click "Apply".

And it depends on what purpose the proxy is used for. But you should definitely give preference to paid proxies. They are more reliable, always available, and with that comes a guarantee of privacy. Unfortunately, personal data is often stolen from free proxies.

Here are some general guidelines to approach scraping protected sites:

1. Check Terms of Service:

   • Review the terms of service, robots.txt file, and any other usage policies provided by the website. Some websites explicitly prohibit scraping.

2. Contact the Website Owner:

   • If you have a legitimate reason for scraping and the website provides contact information, consider reaching out to the website owner or administrator to request permission.

3. Use Official APIs:

   • Many websites offer official APIs that allow controlled access to their data. Using an API is a sanctioned and structured way to obtain information.

4. Simulate Human Behavior:

   • Mimic human behavior by setting appropriate headers, handling cookies, and introducing delays between requests. This helps avoid detection mechanisms that may identify automated bots.

5. Handle CAPTCHAs:

   • Some sites may use CAPTCHAs to prevent automated access. Implement mechanisms to handle CAPTCHAs if they are encountered.

6. Use Proxy Servers:

   • Rotate IP addresses using proxy servers to avoid IP-based blocking. However, be aware that some sites may block common proxy server IP ranges.

7. Avoid Aggressive Scraping:

   • Limit the frequency and volume of your requests to avoid overloading the server. Implement rate limiting and throttling to mimic human browsing behavior.

8. Stay Informed:

   • Monitor the website for changes in its structure or policies. Adjust your scraping strategy accordingly to adapt to any modifications.

There are lots of ways to use them. For example, you can swap your real IP address location for an American one, thus getting the opportunity to watch Netflix at a bargain price. Or you can set up parsing traffic through a proxy to test the security of your web applications. Or you can create a proxy server on your local network that allows traffic through and blocks requests to certain sites.

The most convenient way is to use online proxy checkers, i.e. services that test all connection capabilities, including supported protocols. For example, Hidemy.name or Securitylab. As for applications, you can recommend SocksChain or Open Proxy Checker.
