Antidetect browser vs VPN vs proxy: what each one actually changes
A VPN changes the IP address of your whole device. A proxy changes it for one app or one browser profile. An antidetect browser separates cookies and device values per profile, and gives each profile its own proxy. They solve different problems; here is which one you need, and when to combine them.
Chrome profiles vs Firefox containers vs an antidetect browser
Chrome profiles separate whole sets of browser data. Firefox containers separate cookies and site storage inside one Firefox. Neither changes the device a site sees or gives each identity its own IP. Here is what each one separates, when it is enough, and when you need separate profiles with their own fingerprint and proxy.
Sticky vs rotating proxies: which keeps a logged-in profile stable
A sticky proxy keeps the same IP address for a while; a rotating proxy hands you a new one per request, per interval or per launch. For a profile that stays signed in, stable usually wins. Here is how each works, where rotation helps, and how SoftGlaze's four rotation policies behave.
Residential vs datacenter proxies: which to use for browser profiles
Datacenter proxies are fast and cheap but easy to recognise as hosting. Residential proxies look like ordinary home connections but cost more and must be sourced with consent. Here is how the four proxy types differ, how sites tell them apart, and which one fits each kind of profile.
WebRTC leaks: what they are, how to test for one, and how to stop it
A WebRTC leak lets a website see your real IP address even though your pages load through a proxy or VPN. Here is why it happens, a two-minute test, the ways to stop it, and what each WebRTC setting in a SoftGlaze profile actually does.
How to test your browser fingerprint, and read the results
A browser fingerprint test shows what a website can read from your browser without cookies. Here is which test sites to use, what each one is good for, and how to read the results for a browser profile, including the warnings that matter and the scores that don't.
What is an antidetect browser? What it does, and what it can't
An antidetect browser keeps accounts apart by giving each browser profile its own cookies, its own device fingerprint and its own proxy. Here is how that works, what it is legitimately for, and the limits nobody can honestly promise away.
