What is the best proxy for Android?
I have an HTC Thunderbolt, and after experiencing issues with my Verizon connection, I am switching over to AT&T for phone and Internet usage.
The only reason I decided on this is because of the Verizon throttling, which is also not so great.
I can get a 3G modem and it will be a 3G connection, so that will limit my connection usage. But I won't be so limited that I can't use internet for email, etc. I would just like something better than the standard mobile data connection.
I need something for AT&T (preferably a new iPhone 4), and I'm interested in Android apps like gomobi, or gomobi HD, or any other options. So I guess I am asking for the best proxy for Android.

Do free proxy servers work?
There is no guarantee that any free proxy server will be safe and private.
In fact, the only true free thing about such a service is that they are absolutely legal, since they don't cost the user any money and the only reward they expect is publicity. We know that some of them charge money to access premium features or to have faster connections or more anonymity - as if those weren't enough for paying users. Here are some arguments against free proxy servers, and how to choose a private one.
Free proxy services have ads. And lots of them. What do you think is the most annoying form of advertising? Pop-up windows, full of spam. These pop-ups are designed to irritate you, cause problems with your browser or operating system and slow down your web browsing or gaming experience.
Free proxy services make people waste time. There's a reason they're called free: They're not designed to be convenient. People may even complain about a low speed or poor connection. These things happen when all your friends' internet uses the same proxy, not when it takes you forever to connect to a website.
They might not be legal. If your ISP wants to monitor your traffic, or has already started doing so, but isn't doing so to the fullest extent it could, then this might just prove useful. Maybe you need it to get around the restriction on proxy servers. Maybe you want to use more anonymity. That's not enough reason to sacrifice your privacy.
They're not secure. If your ISP is using Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), that doesn't mean that it will only use it for its own benefit. It will probably use it to spy on what you're doing.
They might not be safe. While it may seem obvious that the connection through the proxy is safe, that doesn't always make the whole thing as secure as it seems. Because they don't check it's status. A malicious proxy server could pretend to host all your content, but instead is redirecting it to some other network it has access to. This would also lead to privacy issues, which we'll cover further down the page.
What is the safest free proxy?
I dont think there is any free proxy that is safe. I mean they all steal your info and the connection is very slow, and you can get into trouble if you use a proxy that isnt listed here. I use a proxy that is not listed here, because it is safe, and its free. If you want a good one, try the free proxies in this thread, and if you want a really good one, try the one in this thread:
Note: You will need to download the FreeProxies script, which will install the script automatically.
