bouthis.tk does not exist any more. The name stopped resolving, so a browser cannot even find a server to ask.
The site it used to be
Almost nothing survives of bouthis.tk. The Internet Archive never kept a working page from it, which is common for a site that ran for a season on a free address.
It ran on Glype, the script behind most free web proxies of that era.
A directory of free web proxies, workingproxysites.com, took the listing 13 years ago, and the directory counted 125 clicks on it. The listing places it in United States.
When it stopped
The ending explains the timing. .tk was free through Freenom, which is exactly why so many one-page proxies used it, and when Freenom froze registrations in early 2023 the whole layer went with it. Our check of all 8,948 listed sites found 8,831 names that no longer exist.
What answers there now
We checked bouthis.tk on 10 September 2026 from our own server. Nothing resolves. The lookup comes back empty, which means no server can even be reached, let alone a proxy.
What still works
The replacement for a dead web proxy is not another name to remember. Our free proxy list shows when each entry was last checked and re-verifies every few minutes, and the checker tests an address you bring yourself.
Free proxies stay shared and short lived. For opening a blocked page that is usually enough, and for anything that has to work at a particular moment it is not.
What we could not establish
No public document explains the ending. We can date it and describe it; anything about motive would be invention, and this page prints none.
This is a single reading from a single vantage point. A proxy that turns away data centre addresses would give us the same silence as a proxy that no longer exists. We recheck by 1 January 2027.
