IANAL either, but IMHO proxy caches fall under the provisions of article 1,
paragraph 5, section 3 of the Information and Communication Services Act,
available online at http://www.iid.de/rahmen/iukdgebt.html:

(3) Providers shall not be responsible for any third-party content to which
    they only provide access. The automatic and temporary storage of third-
    party content due to user request shall be considered as providing access.
