Privoxy can't block things like
/(.*/)?js/hitbox
on SSL requests, but it can block hostname patterns like
.*tracking.
.*ad.

And it's pretty easy to turn an ad blocker hostfile into a privoxy
action file - eg
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lightswitch05/hosts/master/ads-and-tracking-extended.txt
> lightswitch-hosts.txt
to get the file and
sed -e "s/0\.0\.0\.0 //" -e "s/^  *//" -e "s/  *$//" -e "/^$/d"
lightswitch-hosts.txt
to remove the leading "0.0.0.0 " on the lines
