I don't use Ghostery and AdBlock. I see my friends using it and how Firefox consume tons of his PC memory.

I use different browser to access different category websites. Brave browser for social media and Firefox for news reading or researching. Both of that browsers using the same local proxy connection in my PC. I installed Privoxy and Squid on the same PC with that browsers and so they are appear as the same user agents (e.g. Chrome).

When I access http://www.janbambas.cz, of course my browser loading faster as my Privoxy allow/block these domains:

You see that, my Privoxy blocked 9 connections and 3 domains.

What makes me sick is this person #Honza Bambas# doesn't give a real solution to our browsing problems. He only makes us die slowly.

Can you explain why you think gravatar is a problem?

Or google fonts?

By blocking both of domains we reduce page load time. The browser doesn't have to wait _forever_ for both of connections complete as it already blocked. Moreover, I need only the article and not picture of his avatar or fancy fonts. Remember, Google fonts are files in Google's web server, every request to a web server will be written in its log file (e.g. browser's user agent, http referer, IP address). Like suspicious OCSP requests (in disguise), it's a kind of tracker, right?
