Adding privacyand anonymity to the EEE by installing TOR and privoxy

This too, is an easy one:

echo deb http://mirror.noreply.org/pub/tor/ sarge main >>
/etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv CFF71CB3AFA44BDD
gpg --export --armor CFF71CB3AFA44BDD | apt-key add -
sudo apt-get install tor
sudo apt-get install privoxy

Edit the config file as described on the documentation page and restart privoxy. Add Torbutton to your Firefox to tell it to use privoxy and voila: you’re done.
