Honestly, if you're asking how to setup a proxy server for privacy, you might wanna consider just using Tor or a VPN instead. Proxies alone don’t encrypt your traffic, so they’re not the best for privacy.
But if you’re set on it, try Privoxy—it’s super lightweight and works on almost anything, even an old laptop. Pair it with SSH tunneling for better security.
There’s a good walkthrough on Privoxy’s site, and it’s way less confusing than Squid.
