It doesn't involve cookies but you could redirect all requests
to http://config.privoxy.org/client-tags, modify the client-tags
template to contain whatever the user is supposed to see and add
a client-specific tag that disables the redirect.

https://www.privoxy.org/user-manual/actions-file.html#REDIRECT
https://www.privoxy.org/user-manual/config.html#CLIENT-SPECIFIC-TAG

You may want to restart Privoxy occasionally so it clears the
client tag state.
