If you choose to use VPN, always go with Paid VPNs.

I have one question if you don't mind. When checking TikTok statistics for a post, do you ever see top viewing cities that are not in the US?
My analytics show that the audience is over 65% from the United States, but when I check the 'city' tab, the top views come from places like Nairobi or Johannesburg, along with a few cities in the US. Is this a problem?
I'm not sure if my VPN method still works, even though I managed to get over 2k views on multiple videos.
I have used HMA but, it was not a good xp for me.. I used it for Dubai though! and if you want you can easily use proxy in your android mobile also.
Can you give me the license code as well?

I was just about to recommend the same thing. On android you want to use Super Proxy, on apple there is an app called Shadow Rocket for Proxies. This is what I recommend, no complicated rooting of devices or any tinkering required. You can also set it where there is no exposure of your ip address, you can configure it in such a way that it won't even allow your device to send any packets out to the internet, unless the vpn/proxy is enabled. Hope this helps! Cheers.

The problem with proxy and VPN is that there are blacklists. The better known a provider is, the higher the probability that the IPs of VPNs and proxies will be blocked.
Another Problem with Android is DNS. The DNS 8.8.8.8 from Google is hardcoded in Android and Chrome Browser.
https://community.cloudflare.com/t/dns-settings-for-dns-over-http-3-dns-over-quic-on-android/400931
Depending on the setting, you use the DNS of your Internet provider which block also websites and log all your activities.
What you can do is to use another DNS like:
Your own DNS via NextDNS:
https://nextdns.io/
Public DNS via:
Quad9: 9.9.9.9
https://www.quad9.net/
Cloudflare: 1.1.1.1
https://www.cloudflare.com/de-de/learning/dns/what-is-1.1.1.1/
And in the Browser you can configure DNS over HTTPS (DoH)
https://developers.cloudflare.com/1.1.1.1/encryption/dns-over-https/encrypted-dns-browsers/
But with a secure DNS your IP is not anonym! For this you need a VPN or Proxy.
If you wanna root your smartphone and you have a Google device go with GrapheneOS without Google services.
https://grapheneos.org/
Another part is the cookies. So for this you can use Mozilla with Multi Account Containers Plugin. But this works only on Desktops.

What exactly would be the problem with using Google DNS? More than half of the world is probably using it, right?

Google offer many free services like Google recaptcha, Google Fonts, Google Analytics, Free DNS, Android, Chrome, Gmail etc. right?
btw....also Microsoft use Google Analytics in the 2FA Authenticator App
https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/com.azure.authenticator/latest/
In cyber security there is behavioral analytics which analyzes the behavior of the user.
And TikTok use Akamai as WAF (Web Application Firewall) with behavioral analytics.
https://www.akamai.com/newsroom/pre...anizations-to-fight-fraud-and-reduce-friction
And what all the technology companies are doing like Microsoft, Google, Akamai, Cisco, etc. they collect data and sell it.
And with this data the companies can optimize the security products. So from the security perspective its good. New attacks can be identified and protected faster.
But as user you are also the product. As example it does also exist legal marketplaces like https://datarade.ai/ which databroker sell data.
Or why can you have an antivirus for free? because they collect your data and sell it ;-)
So Akamai collect data self and buy it also from Google. If you use free Google services, you are the product and all your activities would be logged and collected and sold to others company.
So what can you do?
Use OS like Linux, use privacy DNS, configure the DNS settings of your browser, use vpn/proxy, use plugins like uBlock origin to block analytics scripts, use privacy authenticator (not Microsoft), use privacy E-Mail etc.,
But its very difficult... if you have a smartphone you have a SIM with IMEI and the Phone provider have maybe your passport ID. So always 1000 ways to create a user profile about you and collect data.
in the end of the day you have to think in all OSI layer
