I would like to know if there are ways to detect residential proxies such as those provided by the proxy provider Luminati.
I did tests to see the different data in the $_SERVER variable but I don't see any information that would help me know that.
I would like to know if anyone has a solution to my problem.
I want to block all users using a proxy, even those who usurp a residential IP.
Thank you.

  • Use a maintained proxy list and block accordingly. These are usually subscription services since maintaining them is a lot of work. I would look into the API services at ipqualityscore.com . They have free tier pricing which should cover most small non-revenue projects. – Typel Nov 06 '19 at 23:07
  • Do you this that ipqualityscore.com will be able to detect residential proxies ? Thank you – Pixel Nov 06 '19 at 23:09
  • I don't know, but they do have a web chat on their site. You can ask them directly. It's just one of many services. If they don't, maybe another one will. – Typel Nov 06 '19 at 23:12

    @Rustyjim This post will not help me to detect residential proxy sorry. – Pixel Nov 06 '19 at 23:16
  • You should tell us _why_ you want to do this thing so we can suggest more pertinent options. – Sammitch Nov 06 '19 at 23:35
  • It looks like IP2Proxy is also detecting residential proxies. You might want to check with them and see if it fit your requirements. – Michael C. Aug 22 '20 at 10:11
