Add Privoxy support to weaken mass data collection

Open cpu opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Suggested by @DanielHeath in https://github.com/jlund/streisand/issues/62

If we're trying to prevent/avoid mass data collection as well as mass censorship, www.privoxy.org or similar might be a worthwhile addition to the streisand bundle.

Any interest? I might see if I can get it running next weekend.

There was some follow-on discussion in https://github.com/jlund/streisand/issues/62 that should be referenced by anyone wanting to restart the discussion here.

It is very simple to block hosts with /etc/hosts and the dnsmasq config requires no changes. I use this project (although I generate the hosts file locally and copy it up to a streisand instance) https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts

How much memory does dnsmasq use with a typical /etc/hosts?

I like Privoxy integration, too.
