Well you should use private proxies instead. Public ones usually get banned fast.
I saw that google is more aggressive with the bans in the last period. I'm paranoid or you saw it too?
A number of users have been reporting a higher than normal rate of 403 errors from google. 403 error means google thinks you are a bot. This is a normal error to receive but lately our proxies are receiving it much more often. This issue is widespread across our IPs. We are aware of it and taking measures to try to fix it. Please trust that we are doing the best we can (ordering new servers and IPs takes time).
It seems that recently Google increased its enforcement of scraping and they changed the limits some how. So behavior that did not previously cause problems is causing individual IP addresses, sometimes entire blocks of IP addresses, to be banned. It may be wise to cut down your rate of scraping and increase the velocity with which you switch IPs. It may also be worth it to ping Scrapebox support about this and ask them to change the request rates.
Unfortunately, this problem has affected multiple proxy providers so it definitely seems like a change that google made. We are doing as much as we can on our end: we are working to decrease the number of users per proxy, limit overuse by individual users, and increase speed.
Until then, thank you very much for your patience. Please rest assured we are aware of the issue and working on it.
I notice it too (more 403 error messages) from my specialized SEO tools as well as the public proxies.
no problems here still getting the same amount of Google passed proxies
i always get. 1k in a morning - 1.5k in the evening, no change here

because i dont port scan socks,
only HTTP proxies , i was able to throw in and get working without really trying
around 200 socks proxies working on scrapebox, aprox 190 where anonymous
and around 50 Google passed ..
[3:02:41 PM] tony: quick question guys, i see a few proxy sellers on bhw
saying that Google is becoming more aggressive blocking there proxies
they provide for users to scrape with, can anyone confirm if the proxies
i am providing are working better/worse or is everything working the same as usual..
that is normal because your proxies are new but when the users will start to perform searches they will have the same problem
"proxygo"
I have been reading multiple explanations on your behalf and I believe you lol, port scanning to further find ports. I have been wasting so much time on finding proxies than on my url research lol. I would absolutely purchase your service and use NiX but hell, can't afford a single domain as of yet :/
Soon though
About Google banning, I did notice something, yes. Forum posted scrapes from fellow members also appear to drain like lightning quick too. Proxies are the bases of SEO research.
