Typing history.digper.net today gets you a parking page put there by whoever holds the name.
What sat at this address
Almost nothing survives of history.digper.net. 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.
The listing that carried it, on the free proxy directory workingproxysites.com, is 12 years old, and the directory counted 361 clicks on it. The listing places it in United States.
What the name does today
We checked history.digper.net on 10 September 2026 from our own server in Germany. It answers with parked.
The registry has no record of the name any more, which means the registration itself lapsed rather than the site simply going quiet.
What we would use
Skip the name-hunting. The free proxy list we publish is re-verified every few minutes and shows exactly when each address last answered, and the checker will test an address from an old bookmark before you rely on it.
The honest caveat stays: a free proxy is shared and short lived, and anything behind a login tends to break part way through.
Where the record runs out
There is no account of who ran it or why they stopped. Small sites like this one leave dates behind, not explanations, and we would rather say so than fill the gap.
Treat the check as one sample: taken on one day, from one network. Anything refusing data centre traffic looks identical to something switched off. Due for a recheck by 1 January 2027.
