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

kinformation.tk is gone in the most literal sense: the name itself no longer exists in the domain system. The last page anyone saved from it dates to July 2013.

What it was

The Internet Archive's first working copy of kinformation.tk is from July 2013 and it holds 6 days of captures in total.

The page called itself "Privacy Keeper". Underneath it was Glype, the same free script the rest of the directory ran.

It was listed on workingproxysites.com, a directory of free web proxies, 13 years ago, and that listing counted 302 clicks through to it. The directory recorded it as United States.

When it stopped

The last capture that shows the proxy itself is from 28 July 2013 and the archive kept visiting until 18 January 2018.

What the name does today

We checked kinformation.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.

What to use instead

Use a list somebody keeps checking rather than a name that used to work. Our free proxy list is re-verified every few minutes, and an address that stops answering leaves it instead of sitting there for years. If you already have an address, the proxy checker will tell you whether it still relays anything.

The limits of free are the same everywhere, ours included: the addresses are shared, so the sites that care have seen them before, and there is no session to hold, so logins break part way through.

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.

No. The name no longer resolves, which we checked on 10 September 2026 from our own server. The last working page the Internet Archive holds is from July 2013.
What can I use instead of kinformation.tk?
