Probably so he can enjoy the pain of dealing working around the sites
that build the source IP address into the authentication cookie.
Aggressively rotating through the proxies will cause problems with such
sites because they will see a different source IP and so the auth cookie
will no longer be valid at which point the site will force the user to
log in again.
