I've seen no definitive information about the nature of these residential proxies. They might be NordVPN customers in the US. Or they might have installed some app with a bundled proxy server. Or it could even be outright malware.
But in any case, it'd be cool if people could determine whether their devices are being used as NordVPN exits.
I've run about 300 tests so far, on a few of NordVPN's US servers. And I've hacked a simple test script, using hashed "X-Akamai-Pragma-Client-IP" values.[0]
Just save the code block at the top as "test.sh" or whatever. Then do "chmod u+x", and execute. It'll prompt "IPv4 to search for?". Type an IPv4, and hit "Enter".
This is howling in the void, I know. But so it goes.
