It took me surprisingly long to figure out what "TPTB" meant.

Aside from security, another concern is that that list seems to be pretty dynamic with which servers are available. Managing 4 shortcuts for everyone with hardcoded links would be a nightmare to update.
You mean "pretty dynamic" being the same as "totally freakin unreliable", with unknown uptime, unknown bandwidth, used by spammers and who-knows-what?
That's why I said VPN service, like nordvpn. Which in this scenario is exactly the same thing as a proxy.
Or set up your own proxy servers somewhere in the cloud.

@JaredBusch : Damn you. That was my suggestion!
Good on you for posting an example though

Right, but can you run 4 VPN services at the same time? And even if you can, can you configure a browser to use a specific VPN?

Can you? Yes. Do most support this? No.

Right - I know you can run for SSH sessions at once, so yeah right there - 4 VPN tunnels... but can you make it work as this person wants? Perhaps, I don't know how at this time - I guess Google would be my friend.

AFAIK no one makes a VPN tool for this, but you can make your own for sure.

I found this the other day (and almost lost it; had to search my chrome history)
https://sessionbox.io/plans/auto-renewalIt is a Chrome extension that allows you to specify a different proxy for each session. Might be easier to manage this than 4+ separate shortcuts for 25+ users.
-
I also need to know what the best proxy server would be to run for this. Squid?

Not a bad idea.

Yes, for outbound (forward) proxy, Squid is king. And free.

@scottalanmiller It is this one, right? http://www.squid-cache.org/

Correct

Would multiple Vultr instances be a good platform for this? Can I just deploy a custom Fedora iso and install Squid on these without an additional firewall in front of them? Also, I have to do at least 4; how can I create a template or clone for initial deployment and any future additions?

make a snapshot or backup in Vultr and then deploy new instance from it.

Why would you use a customer ISO?

The install script would be like a one liner once you have a standard. Just copy that one liner into Vultr's script list and have it run on install. You only have more complexity if you use the custom ISO instead of their managed image service.

Based on other discussions, I thought that the Vultr-provided ISOs were outdated or otherwise not desirable for deployment.
