If so many sites and services didn't go out of there way to block or flag VPN users as suspicious then I would have no need to use residential / mobile proxies.

What about using your home/personal connection?

Separately, would you let your home/personal connection be used as a residential proxy?

Personally, I would not, except if it was for a friend / family member, but I would still ask them, pointedly, why my internet connection is required rather than their own.

I would if there was an easy way to make a cut of the revenue of its usage or if I got to use other people's home connections.

Fair enough. Maybe I just have trust issues. Well earned trust issues.

But do they serve you still, or are you holding on to past trauma(s) unnecessarily.

No one is being hurt by someone sharing their internet with me a few times a week.
