Re: Recommendations for browsing via Tor pre tor-browser?

@Ludovic: I've tried setting up privoxy but I can't seem to get it to work.

>       privoxy 
> /gnu/store/d3q0nz8568j32gslkc3lskxpzmimcx9z-privoxy-3.0.26/etc/privoxy/config

exits after a second.

2018-07-21 16:49:37.458 7ff8a464f740 Info: Privoxy version 3.0.26

does not output anything else and privoxy stays up.
Opening https://www.privoxy.org/config/ tells me that Privoxy is not being
used.

I've tried with forwarding to Tor, then using the SOCKS5 proxy on port 9050 in
IceCat, but also without forwarding, then using the HTTP(S) proxy on port 8118
in IceCat.

        sudo nmap -sT 127.0.0.1

does not return any 8118 port.


Also from the manual, tor forwarding is done with

       # forward-socks5t   /               127.0.0.1:9050 .

Note the trailing 't'.
