NodeJS Proxy for blocking adverts on the interwebz (with support for Adblock Plus filter lists and /etc/hosts files). This project aims to make the interwebz even moar awesome!
-
It's blazing fast. Seriously, forget other Proxy implementations.
-
It's written in JavaScript !!!!111eleven.
-
With a few hours on Facebook, reddit, stackoverflow, it uses this amount of memory (whilst having over 20k blocked hosts and urls with n rulesets):
- And yes, 15MB is way less than a couple GB memory usage of an AdBlock Plus Web Browser extension.
- If you still don't believe it, get over it and use something else. I don't care.
This project is released under the WTFPL. See the LICENSE.md for details.
