To recap:
- X added a settings option for using HTTP proxies in the app
- But, it doesn't actually route any traffic to a proxy. Nothing in the app references the setting, and dynamic analysis shows no traffic being sent to the proxy
- This means people trying to stay safe by using this feature are in greater danger due to a false sense of security.

quoting note1t4x…hpw5Actually took the time to submit a h1 report about the HTTP proxy thing. I can't understand why this isn't a bigger deal. It could get someone killed or imprisoned.
