There are also apps that purport to pay you up to a dollar a gigabyte (no joke) for proxying traffic.

And it's not even illegal, not even shady. I see nothing wrong with getting paid to help big companies compete with/destroy each other.

As a bonus you help rid the world of Cloudflare. Cloudflare serves more captchas to ISPs with more proxies. When every ISP is captcha'd, every user will hate Cloudflare.

It's not a get rich quick scheme - there's low demand for proxying at that kind of price.

I'm not going to shill specific companies, so just Google 'get paid to share mobile data' or something.
