A proxy list is a list of open HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS proxy servers all on one website.

Proxies allow users to make indirect network connections to other computer network services.

Proxy lists include the IP addresses of computers hosting open proxy servers, meaning that these proxy servers are available to anyone on the internet.

Proxy lists are often organized by the various proxy protocols the servers use.

Many proxy lists index Web proxies, which can be used without changing browser settings.

In computer networks, a proxy server is a server (a computer system or an application) that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers.

A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource available from a different server and the proxy server evaluates the request as a way to simplify and control its complexity.

Proxies were invented to add structure and encapsulation to distributed systems.

Today, most proxies are web proxies, facilitating access to content on the World Wide Web, providing anonymity and may be used to bypass IP address blocking.

An Internet service provider (ISP) is an organization that provides services for accessing and using the Internet.

Internet service providers may be organized in various forms, such as commercial, community-owned, non-profit, or otherwise privately owned.

BitTorrent is a communications protocol of peer-to-peer file sharing ("P2P") which is used to distribute data and electronic files over the Internet.

BitTorrent is one of the most common protocols for transferring large files, such as digital video files containing TV shows or video clips or digital audio files containing songs.

Peer-to-peer networks have been estimated to collectively account for approximately 43% to 70% of all Internet traffic (depending on location).

In November 2004, BitTorrent was responsible for 25% of all Internet traffic.

As of February 2013, BitTorrent was responsible for 3.35% of all worldwide bandwidth, more than half of the 6% of total bandwidth dedicated to file sharing.
