It's interesting to see the paranoia FUD in the comments here around MITM, when this is happening on your own machine under your control, and it's open-source too. It should be painfully obvious by now that Big Tech is using "security" as an excuse to effectively force-feed you whatever they want, and depriving you of the right to refuse should be illegal.

Fuck the corporate-authoritarians who are taking away the freedom to do what we want to content that enters our machines. They've been fighting that war for a long time, and we can see through the tactics they've been using.

I've been using Proxomitron as a filtering proxy for over 2 decades after its author's death, and it is even more powerful than this (but requires more setup and tuning.)
