Could you build this?
Partial The frontend directory is trivial, but constantly scraping, validating, and health-checking tens of thousands of volatile public proxies across various protocols requires distributed crawling infrastructure.
What it would actually take: Requires high-concurrency worker clusters (e.g., Golang or Python with asyncio) running across worldwide nodes to continuously scrape public proxy sources and test connectivity against latency, anonymity, and protocol standards. Maintaining this without the scraper nodes being rate-limited or blocked demands dedicated IP rotation and distributed infrastructure.
