Editing Privoxy (section)

==History==
Privoxy is based on the [[Internet Junkbuster]] and is released under the [[GNU General Public License]]. It runs on [[Linux]], [[OpenWrt]], [[DD-WRT]], [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[macOS]], [[OS/2]], [[AmigaOS]], [[BeOS]], and most flavors of [[Unix]]. Almost any Web browser can use it.  The software is hosted at [[SourceForge]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.drdobbs.com/tool-of-the-month-privoxy/199102828|title=Tool of the Month: Privoxy|last=Brockmeier|first=Joe|work=[[Dr. Dobb's Journal]]|date=2005-06-17|access-date=2014-03-27}}</ref>  Historically the Tor Project bundled Privoxy with [[Tor_(anonymity_network)|Tor]] but this was discontinued in 2010 as they pushed their own internal [[Tor Browser]] project and recommended against external third party proxies. Privoxy still works if manually configured and is still recommended for third party non-browser applications which do not natively support [[SOCKS]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#TBBSocksPort|website=Tor |title=FAQ |url-status=deviated |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181227042351/https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#TBBSocksPort |archive-date= Dec 27, 2018 }}</ref>
