Is GeoProxy - Free Proxy safe?
GeoProxy - Free Proxy routes selected browser traffic through SOCKS4 proxy servers listed by socks-proxy.net.
When you click Connect, the extension fetches public SOCKS4 proxy IPs from socks-proxy.net and applies one as the browser's proxy. It stores the selected proxy details in Chrome sync storage and tests the connection by loading Google and Wikipedia through that proxy.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed GeoProxy contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
