If Spur identifies a provider such as NetNut, does that mean the traffic originated directly from that provider's customer?
Not necessarily. Proxy ecosystems often involve resellers, downstream providers, SDK operators, and shared infrastructure. A provider label identifies infrastructure associated with the traffic but should not be treated as attribution of a specific end user without additional evidence and investigation.
