    Adblock Plus has become a proprietary product and colludes with corporate entities to mislead users who think their privacy is being protected while allowing data gathering, advertising, and the individual indentification of users to occur secretly. Deceitful, not Open Source, dishonest corporate shills. Sellouts of the worst kind. BTW, I retired in 1999 at age 44 from my Internet patents - just detest liars - if the ads you permit are so great why are you hiding that fact???

    Proximodo is a loopback proxy server, seemingly a fork of proxomitron though likely abandonware. Unlike Proxomitron its developer is not existentially challenged. Additionally Proximodo can use Proxomitron filters. Unfortunately it does not support SSL connections.
