I am trying to get people to stop doing:
I will delete the problematic lines from my configuration example. BUT
fist I will read the documentation again, to understand what I'm doing.
By the way, I don't use it in my small family production environment, I
was doing that only for testing an learning, how MITM could be done.
Ah, thats part of what I was worried about. These settings make Squid
actively hide problems from both you as admin and the user / clients.
Having almost all the useful error messages hidden does not help you
learning / debugging what is going on.
I respect the privacy of my family, so I wouldn't use it productively.
These settings do not affect privacy. They make Squid stay silent even
if your network and clients are under heavy active attacks by outside
services. They also as a side-effect provide invisibility *to the
attackers* (not to your clients! ouch).
Effectively they do the opposite of what a sane admin wants in todays
environment.
