Frequently Asked Questions

How does a transparent proxy leak my identity?

Transparent proxies append your true origin IP to headers such as X-Forwarded-For, X-Real-IP, or Via. Any destination server can read these headers immediately.

Are SOCKS5 proxies inherently Elite?

Yes. SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 operate at the transport layer and do not inspect or modify HTTP headers, meaning they never inject forwarding metadata. However, server logs maintained by the proxy host still exist.
