## PROXY_ROUTERS
Default: `["utilities.proxy.DefaultProxyRouter"]`
A list of Python classes responsible for determining which proxy server(s) to use for outbound HTTP requests. Each item in the list can be the class itself or the dotted path to the class.
The `route()` method on each class must return a dictionary of candidate proxies arranged by protocol (e.g. `http` and/or `https`), or None if no viable proxy can be determined. The default class, `DefaultProxyRouter`, simply returns the content of [`HTTP_PROXIES`](#http_proxies).
