Privoxy Rules

The neilvandyke.action add-on file for the Privoxy privacy-enhancing Web proxy server comprises approximately 8000 rules intended to generally improve online privacy and reduce annoyances. Individual rules block Web objects such as:

  • Images, pages, and scripts that can be used to perform cross-site user tracking and profiling.

  • Spyware.

  • Sites and pages advertised in spam (on email, Wiki, CraigsList, Usenet, etc.).

  • Sites that exist only to subvert search engines.

Here we use "block" to mean "selectively not download."

You can download file neilvandyke.action.

This file has its origins in my old Junkbuster blockfile, which I no longer maintain. If you still use Junkbuster, I generally recommend migrating to Privoxy. I started to rewrite junkbust.el for Privoxy, but haven't had time to do it properly.
