I wanted to share a clean, lightweight Python boilerplate that I use for my automation tasks.It handles random User-Agents, rotating proxies from a list, and includes random backoff delays to prevent immediate bans.import requestsimport randomimport timefrom bs4 import BeautifulSoup# List of proxies to rotate (format: 'ip<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />ort' or 'user<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />ass@ip<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />ort')PROXY_LIST = [   "http://your_proxy1<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />ort",   "http://your_proxy2<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />ort",   "http://your_proxy3<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />ort"]# List of common User-Agents to mimic different browsersUSER_AGENTS = [   "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/120.0.0.0 Safari/537.36",   "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/17.2.1 Safari/605.1.15",   "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"]def get_secure_session():   session = requests.Session()      # Set random User-Agent   session.headers.update({"User-Agent": random.choice(USER_AGENTS)})      # Set random Proxy if list is not empty   if PROXY_LIST:       proxy = random.choice(PROXY_LIST)       session.proxies = {"http": proxy, "https": proxy}          return sessiondef fetch_data(url):   session = get_secure_session()   try:       # Added timeout to prevent script from hanging       response = session.get(url, timeout=10)       if response.status_code == 200:           return response.text       else:           print(f"[-] Failed with status code: {response.status_code}")           return None   except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:       print(f"[-] Connection error: {e}")       return None# Example usageif __name__ == "__main__":   target_url = "<a href="https://httpbin.org/ip" target="_blank">https://httpbin.org/ip</a>" # Use this to test proxy rotation      print("[+] Starting request...")   html_content = fetch_data(target_url)      if html_content:       print("[+] Success!

Let me know if you need help adjusting this for dynamic JavaScript websites (Playwright/Selenium) — I might drop a guide on that later if you guys are interested!</blockquote>
