If you want to look at legality; Part of the LTS contract is that software feature changes are *not* done. The clients have chosen to make that a requirement. The OS distributors have chosen to meet it. Nothing to do with what Squid Project does in our latest shiny version. It is actually a bit unreasonable to ask us not to add new features to the upstream code to prevent breakage in something that was designed specifically NOT to run those new software versions. So, if anything it is more likely to be "illegal" to run Squid-5 on those OS.
OK, but LTS releases may used by developers to develop squid (this is not illegal!).
That type of service which IMO can and should be paid for. Even with open source the "free" only stretches so far. Customers have money, payment is what makes them "customers".
Yes, but we are (you, measurement factory, etc) the supporters of these customers, there is not any reason to make our lives harder.
