Recommendations from TheSafety.US

It should be noted that the proxy is configured directly in the macOS operating system.

If you use a VPN, then an undesirable situation will arise when the traffic first goes to the proxy server and only then to the VPN (chain: proxy + VPN). Although, the best option from the point of view of security and anonymity is the chain: VPN + proxy.

The best solution to solve this problem is to use app Proxifier for macOS or Secure Kit browser extension.
