I don't know much about VPNs but that statement is one of my red flags: when a VPN provider is vague about ip reputation migrations I assume they're buying residential proxys.

We do use those for geo-unblocking, but they're not used for anti-CAPTCHA mitigations. We own and operate special purposes ASes and IP prefixes for that.

All of this can also be (verifiably) disabled by the end user in the web control panel.

What steps, if any, are you taking to make sure you are sourcing your residential proxies ethically? Honest question.

The part that seems shady to me is how you do this without being caught by the up database providers are marked as a non-residential ip.

My read of GP's reply is: they use residential proxies to get around geo-blocking, and separately have special purpose ASs to avoid captchas. They're separate solutions serving separate needs; connecting to Netflix gets you the residential IP, regular browsing would get you the other one.
