  • In the US and EU: Running a proxy is generally legal under net neutrality principles. However, using it to circumvent copyright protection (e.g., accessing a geographically locked streaming service) violates Terms of Service, not criminal law.
  • In the UK: The Investigatory Powers Act requires proxy operators to keep logs for potential law enforcement requests. Running an anonymous, non-logging proxy is not illegal, but refusing to cooperate with a warrant is.
  • In China, Russia, Iran: Operating any proxy that bypasses state censorship is explicitly illegal. The footer "Powered by php-proxy" is essentially a confession. Individuals have received prison sentences for hosting public proxies.
  • On Shared Hosting (GoDaddy, cPanel): Most hosting Terms of Service forbid "proxy scripts" because they consume excessive CPU (due to URL rewriting) and are often used for spam or scraping. If your host scans for the footer, they will suspend your account.

Response handling:

Seeing that footer today is like finding a vintage arcade cabinet in the back of a modern mall. powered by php-proxy
