Privoxy is a "privacy enhancing proxy", filtering web pages and removing advertisements.

[3] Privoxy is based on the Internet Junkbuster and is released under the GNU General Public License.

It runs on Linux, OpenWrt, DD-WRT, Windows, macOS, OS/2, AmigaOS, BeOS, and most flavors of Unix.

Privoxy still works if manually configured and is still recommended for third party non-browser applications which do not natively support SOCKS.
