A proxy is similar to a VPN for changing different static or dynamic IP's. The only difference difference is that a VPN also encrypts the DNS requests. I'm using a proxy every day for my business to access certain sites, because changing IP's forces me to log in an verify it again the IP again. It's a completely legit use.

A proxy does not inherently promise encryption. All VPN connections provide encryption. Just make sure you use the correct protocols!

@@bobbyrandomguy1489 - That what I said, a proxy is just for changing IP's. But with 99% of websites nowadays the actual traffic is encrypted via HTTPS/TTS. The only things a VPN is better at, is hiding DNS queries so an attacker won't know the url/IP of the sites you're visiting. Honestly I don't trust either proxy and VPN services, could be honey-pots all we know. "Trust me bro, no logs!" lmao

A VPN completely replicates the network stack and encapsulates it in an encrypted way, while a proxy just forwards requests for you and acts as man-in-the-middle

I see proxyjacking as a risk to the victims, as high risk traffic could be tunneled to these unsuspecting victims.

im hearing impaired and the transcript is hard to search through. is this vulnerability involving modifying DNS requests via the proxy end?

I just started watching so i can't answer, but maybe you could benefit from a strategy I use to study: I copy and paste the transcript into an AI and ask it questions

Via the proxy end? It's just using infected machines as proxies and selling their access.

@@andrewferguson6901 Fun and profit is a dog-headed point of view. Do you think you are better than a dog? The most successful hackers are god-headed political idealogues with tragic tales; not run of the mill crooks or goons. Political idealogues look at crypto and networking technology companies and sees it for what it is. State-sponsored fascism with a bunch of pretty graphs. If you can't learn to understand the motives of your adversaries you can never hope to stop them, much less compete with them. Low-brow attacks like what this talk covers only exists because this country is one large honeypot. Hackers know better than professionals what is real and what is not.
