How SmartProxy Works
SmartProxy is a built-in feature of MegaBasterd , an open-source download manager designed to bypass MEGA.nz’s strict transfer limits. By using a rotating list of proxies, the software masks your real IP address, tricking MEGA into seeing multiple "new" users instead of one user exceeding their 5GB daily quota.
