When you connect through a proxy, your real IP address is hidden, and your requests appear to come from the proxy’s location instead of your own. ## Why Use Proxies? - Prevent IP Blocking: By distributing requests across different proxy addresses, you reduce the likelihood of a website detecting unusual activity and blocking your IP. - Bypass Geographic Restrictions: Proxies allow you to view content or access services that may be limited to certain regions. - Improve Privacy: Using a proxy helps keep your actual IP address private, offering an added layer of anonymity while browsing or collecting data online. --- ## ⚠️ Error Handling The actor validates inputs before execution and returns structured error objects. ### Validation Errors Example json { "status": "INPUT_ERROR", "message": "Your input is invalid", "details": [ "Invalid country_domain: 'us'.
