Stop ads and tracking script with Privoxy
Privoxy is a non-caching web proxy with advanced filtering capabilities for enhancing privacy. It is a free, open-source local proxy for blocking ads and tracking scripts.
It comes between your browser and the Web, intercepting HTTP and HTTPS (secure HTTP) traffic and acting as a traffic cop of sorts. Privoxy sanitizes the information your browser sends and receives. Content blocking works by simply not delivering the ad to the browser, or not fetching it at all, so there's nothing to display (or nothing to run, in case it's a JavaScript user tracking script).
