Many thanks! I've just submitted the first batch of 3000 (daily limit) IP addresses. | ||||||||

That is a ridiculous way to try and deal with the problem of residential proxies. You are, in reality, only hurting the actual owners, the subscribers of those ISPs who are behind those addresses. We call that "collateral damage". If any of those actual residential users try to use a website, their ability to freely access the Internet may be harmed by a bad reputation that they do not deserve. They may be totally unaware and non-consenting to residential proxy use. You are not, in fact, hurting the residential proxy-ers at all. Not one bit. They will move on to another IP and another compromised LAN, and they will continue to move on and on and on. They will not be harmed or impeded; they will simply keep turning up fresh, new, high-reputation IPv4 and IPv6 sources. This is a sheer numbers game, where the numbers are always in favor of the attackers. Also if network admins keep blocking/filtering abusive residential proxies, they will balloon their firewall rules and cause actual performance issues at the network level. You will turn into your own DDOS without any actual benefit. You're on the losing side of the numbers game, and in the immortal words of W.O.P.R., "The Only Winning Move Is... Not to Play." | ||||||||
