    (Answer)  (Category)  FAQs : (Category)  Check Proxy Professional FAQ (English) : (Category)  Proxy Servers : (Answer)  Are there dangerous proxies?
    Yes.
    First, there are servers of goverment organisations (FBI, CIA, NASA etc.) and organizations working close with federal/state and corporate law enforcement. They can even let you scan, tag, fill, or overtake the entire system. But you really have no control. They are monitoring you.
    Second, there are hackers.
    And don't believe those proxy checkers (even pay ones) telling you "we filter all dangerous proxies". It's impossible. Nobody can tell you if that proxy you are using is monitored or not.
    Of course we've blacklisted all IPs and IP ranges we found to be dangerous (in fact hundreds of ranges).
