Talk:proxy abuse

RFD discussion: December 2022–January 2023
SOP, repeatable pattern: proxy can be combine with a plethora of other nouns and it just means "somebody else does it in your stead". &mdash; Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 04:20, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I first assumed this referred to the abusive use of online proxies, and I’m not sure I’d have guessed this meaning without some obvious context. That being said, “abuse by proxy” is by far the more common term for this anyway, and the top results for “proxy abuse” do indeed refer to the misuse of online proxies. At best, this entry is misleading. Theknightwho (talk) 14:03, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
 * In either sense, “abuse by proxy” or “abuse of proxies”, the term is IMO SOP. --Lambiam 18:26, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete, this is proxy being used attributively hence SOP. Ioaxxere (talk) 04:48, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
