    History

    Privoxy is evolved, and derived from, - In the beginning, there was the + the Internet Junkbuster, with many - improvments and enhancements over the original.

    Internet Junkbuster, + by Anonymous Coders and Junkbusters + Corporation. It saved many users a lot of pain in the early days of + web advertising and user tracking.

    But the web, its protocols and standards, and with it, the techniques for + forcing users to consume ads, give up autonomy over their browsing, and + for spying on them, kept evolving. Unfortunately, the Junkbuster was originally written by Anonymous - Coders and Internet + Junkbuster did not. Version 2.0.2, published in 1998, was + (and is) the last official + release + available from Junkbuster's - Corporation, and was released as free open-source software under the - GNU GPL. Junkbusters Corporation. + Fortunately, it had been released under the GNU + GPL, which allowed further + development by others.

    So Stefan Waldherr started maintaining an + Stefan - Waldherr made many improvements, and started the improved version of the + software, to which eventually a number of people contributed patches. + It could already replace banners with a transparent image, and had a first + version of pop-up killing, but it was still very closely based on the + original, with all its limitations, such as the lack of HTTP/1.1 support, + flexible per-site configuration, or content modification. The last release + from this effort was version 2.0.2-10, published in 2000.

    Then, some + SourceForge project - Privoxy to rekindle development. There are now several active - developers contributing. The last stable release of - developers + picked up the thread, and started turning the software inside out, upside down, + and then reassembled it, adding many + new + features along the way.

    The result of this is Junkbuster was v2.0.2, which has now - grown whiskers ;-).

    Privoxy, whose first + stable release, 3.0, is due in May 2002.
