Great-britain.tk is gone: what the record shows, and what to use

Great-britain.tk was a free web proxy the archive first saved in August 2013. What it was, when it stopped, what the name does today, and a list that is still checked.

Skip the dead lists.

Our free proxy list re-checks every exit every few minutes across 100+ countries, with a live last-checked time, so you copy IPs that worked moments ago, not a stale text dump.

Open the free proxy list

There is nothing left at great-britain.tk. The domain no longer resolves at all, and the archive's last working copy of the site is from August 2013.

What it was

The Internet Archive's first working copy of great-britain.tk is from August 2013 and it holds 7 days of captures in total.

The page called itself "Hide Traces". The directory recorded it as a Glype install, which is what nearly all of these sites were.

It was listed on workingproxysites.com, a directory of free web proxies, 13 years ago, and that listing counted 316 clicks through to it.

When it stopped

The last capture that shows the proxy itself is from 3 August 2013 and the archive kept visiting until 19 September 2017.

What the name does today

We checked great-britain.tk on 10 September 2026 from our own server. The name does not resolve: there is no address behind it, so nothing can be served from it.

Where to go from here

A list with a visible last-checked time beats a remembered domain. Ours re-verifies every few minutes; the checker tests a single address if you would rather bring your own.

Expect what free has always meant: shared addresses that targets recognise, and no session persistence, which breaks anything behind a login.

What this page cannot tell you

The record shows when, not why. Nothing public says whether the operator lost interest, lost the hosting, or simply moved on, so this page does not guess.

Our status check is one day from one vantage point, and a site that refuses requests from data centres would look the same as one that is switched off. We will check this page again by 1 January 2027.
