How taboola or other native ads detect vpn

[blackcommoner]

Hello,

I want to develop a native ad site like taboola for very small publishers.
I know some systems to detect bot and vpn. Bot is easily detectable by its behavior and vpn also can be detected cause most of them are using datacenter IP.
My question is, if someone use residential IP vpn, how taboola or other native ads detect them?
Any idea about that?

Regards

i don't know but wouldn't the group ip be the same?

you will detect the well known datacenters but there are a lot of vpn/proxies providers which have ips under residential ISP

Well, it’s a problem. Residential proxies are in theory impossible to detect. But I guess networks use Browser footprint, Webrtc, etc to detect fraud. I’ve been seeing a lot of this WEBRTC thing, where they claim they can tell your real ip if you are using proxies. (not vpn)

WebRTC vulnerability has been know for a long time. If your browser has not webrtc disabled, your local IP will leak even tho you're behind a proxy. Same goes for VPNs.

To test if your IP is leaking when using proxy or VPN: www.whoer.net

I dont think so. As you can see stormproxy has 70,000 residential ips.

Yes, that's what i am asking.

Webrtc can track but they are helpless to Javascript with user's kindness (to download something)

Yah, whoer is much effective tool.

Then they maybe just cant detect then.

It is actually confusing. If they cant detect then, this industry wouldn't run long.

I think most of them are reliable on user behaviour. Even if a real person click or make impression with abnormal or doubtful behaviour, they will take it invalid. And if a bot or person using residential IP behavs natural, then they will count it as valid.
