Hello all, We are from India, likes to know whether proxy sites are legal or not. We got an offer to own a proxy site ourself. likes to know whether it will violate any of the rules in any country? Waiting for your reply, Regards, Coders.
As far as I know, they aren't illegal in the U.S., they may be in China. I don't know. You would have to check the laws in India. Do they limit internet access there, or is access government controlled and censured ? If so, then they are probably illegal.
They are legal in the United States, I know that for a fact. From Proxy.org: You would have to look up the laws in India, or just contact a lawyer.
it depends on the country u live in .. In china its illegal and in many other countries its illegal bc those countries block some websites and by using proxy u unblock them which is illegal .. but in most countries it is legal ... gd luck
i cant see any proxy sites banned in India. so it must be legal i believe. since it is legal in US, i can easily host it in US server.
Countries like China and North Korea block the site -- it isn't illegal but it does go against -- God let me see if I can get this right "Cultural Preservation" or something to that effect. It's not like you will be perused but your site will be blocked by them -- any other free country where there is freedom of speech you can get away with it. India should be fine, as well as the US, Canada, Etc.
This is pretty clear for the US. Other countries may ban sites out right if they think they are illegal. They can simply ban access. I noticed this when I was in KL I couldn't access a proxy site.
