Why are proxies essential for a Twitch viewer bot?
Twitch actively monitors the IP address of every viewer to maintain platform security. A bot sending multiple view connections from a single IP address is easily detected and blocked. Proxies are essential because they provide a unique IP for each connection, making the bot's activity appear as though it originates from many different, individual users. This process helps to avoid having the bot's access blocked or the channel's account flagged for unusual activity.
