proxy server

On the World Wide Web, a server which ‘stands in’ for another server, storing and forwarding files on behalf of a computer that might be slower or too busy to deal with the request itself. Many URLs (Web addresses) redirect the enquirer to a proxy server that then supplies the requested page.

In 1996, the authorities in Singapore imposed a legal requirement on local Internet providers to filter all traffic via a government-run proxy server that can block access to various sites – the first serious government attempt to censor the Internet.
