Correct placement of a that clause:
Incorrect placement:
I don't know which kind of filtering they used that can't even be opened by a proxy!
Correct placement:
I don't know which kind of filtering that can't even be opened by a proxy they used!
Or
I don't which kind of filtering they used; it can't even be opened by a proxy
I don't know which kind of filtering they used, which can't even be opened by a proxy.
the that clause has to be attached to the antecedent (the noun or phrase) it is attached to. The book that was on the table was closed.
However, here, you might want two sentences, as your that clause is so long:
I don't know which kind of filtering they used. It can't even be opened by a proxy.
THIS: a that has to immediately follow what it refers to. "the kind of filtering that can't be opened by proxy" is the phrase. Not: "the kind of filtering they used that can't be opened by a proxy".
Because then, this too would be acceptable:
- the game they played that cannot be beat.
- the movie we saw that was so good.
Those should be:
- the game that cannot be beat that they played
- the movie that was so good that we saw.
Some people in speech do tack on verbs after the noun to which the that refers, but it can lead to confusion and should not be used in writing.
Correct placement of that clause when that is a relative pronoun:
I don't know which technology they used in this mobile set **that even works under water.
That can be used as a subordinate conjunction:
He knew that the card players were cheating. [notice the worlds knew that]
As a subordinate conjunction
The word “that” can be used as a subordinate conjunction, that is, as a word that marks the beginning of a dependent clause.
As a relative pronoun
The word “that” can be used as a relative pronoun; in other words, as a pronoun that begins a subordinate clause and is the subject of that clause. A relative pronoun not only marks the beginning of a dependent clause, as a subordinate conjunction does, but also, unlike a subordinate conjunction, acts as the subject of that dependent clause."
Therefore:
I don't know which technology they used in this mobile set **that even works under water**** is a correct sentence as **that marks the beginning of the clause and is its subject.
