Socks5:
Security: The Socks5 protocol supports encryption and authentication, which can protect the security of data.
Speed: Since the Socks5 protocol only transmits the actual data content when transmitting data, unlike the HTTP protocol which requires additional header information, the Socks5 protocol is faster when transmitting large amounts of data.
Connection management: The Socks5 protocol can better manage connections, such as setting connection timeout, password verification, etc.
HTTP:
Versatility: The HTTP protocol is the most widely used network protocol on the Internet. Almost all web browsers and web servers support the HTTP protocol.
Flexibility: The HTTP protocol supports multiple request methods (such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.) and can be used to implement various applications.
Scalability: The HTTP protocol has good scalability, and its functions can be expanded by adding new HTTP headers, status codes, etc.
