I have a project I want to do that would involve a lot of YouTube scraping. But they'll throttle you if they detect it. This led me down the rabbit hole into the world of residential proxy services. Some of them[0] advertise up to 40 million IPs. I can't imagine many of the owners of those IPs know what they're being used for.
It would be cool if there was a reputable open source project that would let people share/buy residential proxy usage, but at the end of the day there's no way to guarantee people aren't doing horrible things with your IP.
