Default Question about HG's TOS

Quote:
Examples of unacceptable material on all Shared and Reseller servers include :

IRC Bots, Proxy Scripts / Anonymizers, Pirated Software / Warez, image, filedump, mirror, or banner-ad services ( similar to rapidshare, photobucket, or commercial banner ad rotation ), topsites, commercial audio streaming (more than one or two streams), Escrow, High-Yield Interest Programs (HYIP) or related sites, Investment sites (FOREX, egold exchange), sale of any controlled substance without prior proof of appropriate permit(s), AutoSurf sites, Bank Debentures, Bank Debenture Trading Programs, Prime Banks Programs, lottery sites, muds / rpg's, hate sites, hacker focused sites/archives/programs, or sites promoting illegal activities, IP Scanners, Brute Force Programs, Mail Bombers and Spam Scripts. Forums and or websites that distribute or link to warez content are prohibited.
I have read the Terms of Service of HostGator but I'm a bit confused. Proxy Scripts / Anonymizers - what does it really mean ? Does it mean that I'm not allowed to host a site which provides proxies to visitors like Proxy4Free.com ? Or a site which offers free web-based proxy like PHProxy.com ? Or a site which lists all other proxy sites on it like BestProxySites.com ? Can you explain it for me please ? Thank you very much.
