Or old, as the case may be. Proxies are really only defeatable in the
usual ways. If they're screen scraping, then you can have an arms race
implementing anti-scraping tricks, but that goes away as soon as you
support something like, say, ECP or Moonshot, that's implementing a
non-browser UI for authentication.

So that leaves chasing addresses, and blacklisting proxies when you find
them.
