When the service is free, you are the product.
- jjoonathan 4y agoYeah, but you can pay to be the product, too.
- ranger_danger 4y agoThe problem is their proxy backdoor thing is part of an SDK used by other applications/games/etc., both free and paid.
- RockRobotRock 4y agoI mentioned this SDK, EarnApp, in my other comment. I am a shady web scraper that uses these services when necessary. The real answer is, STOP USING IP addresses for reputation scanning. With ipv4 exhaustion and CGN, this is an inevitable outcome anyways.
- str3wer 4y agoaccording to Hola tos you agree to make your device a proxy accessible to everyone else using the service
- RockRobotRock 4y agoBright Data operates a service where you agree to allow your network to be used in their proxy system. In return, they give you a small amount of money per gigabyte of traffic. https://earnapp.com/ https://earnapp.com/
- neatze 4y agoThis sounds too good to be true.
- RockRobotRock 4y agoThere is a community of people who use these passive income apps for some pocket money. It's not too good to be true, but they pay you so little compared to how much they make from you. For example, they pay $0.60/GB for united states traffic, and charge approx $15.00/GB for residential proxy use on the Bright Data network.
