Subject: - Privoxy doesn't exactly "manage" cookies like a modern browser
X-Git-Tag: v_3_0_12~16
X-Git-Url: http://www.privoxy.org/gitweb/@default-cgi@/faq/%22https:/@default-cgi@edit-actions-remove-url?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f73f1579a187d949713fd2a6fc425e02d71cd76e;p=privoxy.git

- Privoxy doesn't exactly "manage" cookies like a modern browser
  does, but it can do neat stuff with HTTP headers in general.
- Privoxy doesn't reliably block Pop-ups, so stop pretending.
- People who never heard of Privoxy are unlikely to to have
  heard of Internet Junkbuster either, so don't bring it up here.
- Mention the license.
