Hello,

Tim, Managing Director at Ping Proxies here. You're correct - we work with various ISPs including AT&T, Comcast, Spectrum and a bunch of others.

We announce IP blocks with their residential connectivity and have proxies that benefit from datacenter uptime/connectivity while also looking like they're real residential connections.

We currently manage 50,000+ proxies in this configuration.

The downsides over having a peer network are that fixed costs are much more expensive and locations are limited - we have London, Berlin, Ashburn and New York while peer networks have basically every city on the planet but one of the largest benefits is the ethical nature of our product and the compliance that brings.

Let me know if you have any questions at all and thanks for supporting us!

Cheers, Tim at Ping
