## Description

Allows configuration of multiple socks proxies per domain.

Note: in order to populate DNS over socks:
- The global proxy setting is briefly set to each of your proxies on startup. Some of your requests when the browser is first starting may go through the socks proxy.
- Must have permission to run in private in order to set global proxy settings (See note on <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/2eea2d1afc41b33c63d39194c1834b9b8b4bf4d05a515caead73597333ad2659/https%3A//developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/proxy/settings" rel="nofollow">https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/proxy/settings</a> for why)
