    Eg. Iran has over 300 people spamming my proxy, using all my bandwith and they don't worth a cent in revenue lol.

    Anyone know how? or like limit their usage?

    Do not write about topics that interest people from Iran.

    As far as I am concerned, I like seeing people come to the site from all over the world., but obviously you would want a majority to come from the English speaking countries as most of us interested in monetizing our sites.

    Sadly it's not a country but the service itself.

    Life of proxies is really short because most of them are abused for people.

    I have seen that many proxies limit abuse by tweaking their scripts to avoid the use the get and post functions, since most of the times the use the proxies to login into services or forums, not just browsing.

    this is an example:
