Proxy server configuration skills that Mac users must learn

Jennie . 2024-07-29

Part 1: Why Mac users need to master proxy configuration

Unlocking geographical restrictions: Many high-quality network resources and services have restrictions on the geographical location of visitors due to copyright, legal or business strategies. By configuring a proxy server, Mac users can easily "transform" into users in different regions and enjoy global network resources.

Improve access speed: Sometimes, connecting directly to the target server may be slow due to network congestion or physical distance. Choosing a suitable proxy server as a transit can significantly shorten the data transmission path and improve access efficiency.

Enhance privacy protection: In a public Wi-Fi environment, using a proxy server can effectively prevent hackers from eavesdropping and stealing your sensitive information, such as passwords, bank account numbers, etc., and build a solid line of defense for your network security.
