A long time ago, there was the Internet Junkbuster, + by Anonymous Coders and Junkbusters Corporation. This 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 ads on users, give up autonomy over their browsing, and + for tracking them, keeps evolving. Unfortunately, the Internet + Junkbuster did not. Version 2.0.2, published in 1998, was + the last official release, available from Junkbusters Corporation. + Fortunately, it had been released under the GNU + GPL, + which allowed further development by others.
So Stefan Waldherr started maintaining an 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 + 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 Privoxy, whose first + stable version, 3.0, was released August, 2002. +
As of 2012 the Junkbusters Corporation's website (http://www.junkbusters.com/) + has been shut down, but Privoxy is still actively maintained.

Privoxy is based in part on code originally developed by + Junkbusters Corp. and Anonymous Coders.
Privoxy heavily relies on Philip Hazel's PCRE.
The code to filter compressed content makes use of zlib + which is written by Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler.
On systems that lack snprintf(), Privoxy is using a version + written by Mark Martinec. On systems that lack strptime(), + Privoxy is using the one from the GNU C Library written + by Ulrich Drepper.
