The web contains advertisements that a user-agent is supposed to
download together with the requested pages. Not only do
advertisements pollute the user's brain, pushing them around takes
time and uses up network bandwidth.
<p>Many so-called content providers also track user activities by using
<dfn>web bugs</dfn>, tiny embedded images that cause a server to log where
they are requested from. Such images can be detected because they are
usually uncacheable (see <a href="Cache-transparency.html#Cache-transparency">Cache transparency</a>) and therefore logged
by Polipo by default.
<p>Polipo can be configured to prevent certain URLs from reaching the
browser, either by returning a <em>forbidden</em> error message to the
user, or by <em>redirecting</em> such URLs to some other URL.
