TheOpen proxies noticeboard seeks to identify, verify and blockopen proxies and anonymity network exit nodes. To prevent abuse or vandalism, only proxy checks byverified users will be accepted. All users are welcome to discuss on the talk page, report possible proxies, or request that a blocked IP be rechecked.
Please report IP addresses you suspect are open proxies below. A project member will scan or attempt to connect to the proxy, and if confirmed will block the address.
 | Before reporting any suspected open proxies here, please remember that not all vandals are open proxies and vandals should not get an automatic check here; remember that it takes the volunteers here about 5-10 minutes to give a request a thorough check. |

A user hasrequested a proxy check. A proxy checker will shortly look into the case.
Reason: Requested unblock.
This IP address range is one which was assigned to me by Contabo (German web hosting service), and I am in sole control of it.
While I do use it as a proxy while abroad, it is not an open proxy, and I am the only user of it.

A user hasrequested a proxy check. A proxy checker will shortly look into the case.
Reason: ISP says "VPN by Google". Not sure if it's a VPN service provided by Google or if it's being used simply as a network. Either way this should be looked into. Thanks.ConnerTT (talk)05:36, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
