webext-foxyproxy for Debian
===========================
foxyproxy can be used with a different kinds of proxy,
but one of the simplest and most effective way is through SSH:
* run 'ssh -TN -D 8080 ssh.example.org' in a terminal,
where ssh.example.org is your remote host that you
want to use as a proxy.
* add a new proxy entry via the foxyproxy extension GUI:
- Proxy Type: SOCKS5
- Proxy IP address or DNS name: localhost
- Port: 8080
* depending on your use case, you also might want to consider:
- enabling 'Do not use for localhost and intranet/private IP addresses'
- configuring a specific URL pattern to be used by foxyproxy
