What are Proxies?
In: 1
A proxy is a person or device that does something on your behalf.
Example: you want to buy a car, but you don’t live in the same state the car you’d like to buy is being sold in. You would hire a professional, or ask a friend who lives nearby, to be your proxy. This means they have the full legal authority to purchase the car on your behalf, and in some instances sign your name to any documents (although this stretches into the power of attorney area).
In some sense, I am acting as a proxy for you right now by summarizing and explaining information which you could go get yourself from the internet if you knew what to look for and where to look.
