[Freedombox-discuss] Privoxy no longer working, no networks configured as internal (?)

[A. F. Cano]

Well, not sure what actually caused this problem, but

sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy restart

seems to have fixed it.

It would still be interesting to know if anyone else has seen
privoxy stop working.
