How does urllib proxies work in python?

Question

Python

import urllib
proxy = {'http':'http://5.53.16.183:8080'} #так же работает с http://rfwreff4rf
res = urllib.urlopen( 'https://vk.com/feed', proxies=proxy )
print res.read()

res gets the response no matter what I write in the proxy. Even if you write ' rfwreff4rf ' instead of ' 5.53.16.183:8080 ' , it will still open the page. How to connect through a proxy?
