Agreed. Just for reference, one of our most popular use-cases is automating data entry into CRMs without APIs... No one wants to be doing this stuff manually, and automating it has some serious positive QoL impact

We get a lot of requests for bad usage (ie spinning up upvote rings on Reddit) but we don't want to support things like that

No-one would need captcha automation or residential proxies for a use case like that that's all on the level.

How does a residential proxy help with that?

Good question! A lot of CRMs have CloudFlare enabled with location based blocking by default, so we needed a way to spoof a local location to be able to interact with the website
But no one can or needs to use a residential proxy for automating CRM data entry.
