Our MyPrivateProxy review revealed some concerning information right off the bat. Please read our review to make an informed decision.
PickAProxy is funded by commissions earned when you make a purchase, at no cost to you, after clicking our links to merchant sites.
Our MyPrivateProxy Review did not get very far due to one of the products they offer, specifically ticketing proxies and Ticketmaster proxies. We are not attorneys, but we do have some concerns about MPP offering products specifically geared toward usage for this use case. For this reason, it has raised concerns for us in general and have made the decision to not partner with or promote them.
Ticketing Proxies
In our initial due diligence for our MyPrivateProxy review, under the “Private Proxies” page, we found this offer for “MPP Ticketmaster” at $390/month.
Then, on the “Dedicated Proxies” page, we found an entire section for Ticketing Proxies.
This is concerning for us because of the way the US Federal government, in particular the FTC and DOJ have handled the use of proxies in relation to event ticket purchasing. They issued enforcement actions under the BOTs Act in 2021 against various American companies and individuals in part for their use of rotating proxies.
While many people regularly use VPNs or one or two proxies for everything they do, we believe the message from the FTC was pretty clear in expanding the guidance on the BOTs Act that using proxies to conceal your IP address to circumvent security measures on a ticketing web site is not allowed.
And we want to be clear: we are not using this MyPrivateProxy review to accuse the company of violating the law. It’s possible they only provide these products to customers in countries or have, in some other way, ensured that their network is being used in accordance with the law. We have no firsthand knowledge of their operations and, again, we are not attorneys.
It may be that they have a great network, great customer support and customers are generally satisfied. However, out of an abundance of caution, it is our policy to not partner with or promote companies that offer ticketing products.
If you are disappointed in our MyPrivateProxy review, the good news is we’ve done reviews on many other proxy providers and now with ProxyMatch you can find exactly what you need to make your project a success! Try ProxyMatch now!

What is the Review Score?
The Review Score is a proprietary analysis that takes into account both objective and subjective inputs from three sources: the proxy provider, our review process and customers of the proxy company.
Why is it Important?
The primary reason is safety. We put a lot of effort into trying to identify providers who might be up to nefarious things. There are too many horror stories out there of providers who disappeared overnight and / or were doing nefarious things on their network. Once a safety baseline is established, you can use the Review Score to assess potential providers based on the things that matter to you.
Should I always choose a company with the higher review score?
Absolutely not. First figure out which companies meet your needs. The review score just alerts users to some potential issues they should look into. This doesn’t mean the potential issues are relevant to you or even valid.
There are cases where a company with a review score of 7 might be a better fit for you than a company with a score of 9. Focus on the specific features and needs you have. Below a score of 7, we generally do not even partner with or promote sites and you should exercise caution if you see a red score.
How is it Calculated?
Good question! We’re not telling. 🙂 However, we say that trust is the most important thing. Using a proxy service has risks when you don’t know what the company behind it is up to so we do as much vetting as possible from independent resources and our own research. The algorithm will grow over time.
Can proxy companies buy a higher review score?
Absolutely not. They cannot buy higher rankings in the ProxyMatch results either. While we do take company input to help us better understand their offerings, they cannot request higher scores. We do review our scores periodically and when providers make changes to policies or offerings.

Customer reviews
Negative feedback we’ve heard from users centered primarily around billing confusion in which customers felt they were overbilled.
Positive feedback centers around positive experiences with customer support, good integrations with tools such as anti-detect browsers and a good ratio of price to performance. Customers seem to be happy with how the proxies perform at that price point.
Social Media Presence
- We were unable to find MyPrivateProxy.net on LinkedIn, though we did find the CEO there.
