## Briefing
- ScrapingBee: ScrapingBee announced that its classic proxy offering now allows users to select a target country from over 40 options via the request builder or API parameter.

## Why it matters
Geolocation is a common requirement for scraping region-specific content, and adding it to the classic proxy tier broadens the use cases for ScrapingBee's existing customers without forcing them to upgrade to a more expensive plan. This move makes the service more competitive against other proxy providers that already offer country-level targeting, and it simplifies workflows for developers who need localized data.

## Watch next
Will ScrapingBee extend geolocation to its other proxy tiers or add city-level targeting in the future?
