Hi all,

is there any comrehensive list of squid regex patterns available to block all famous / known video contents based on request/reply mime types?

Yes. The pattern   video/   is very inclusive of all video file types.

To predict yor next question the pattern audio/ catches the audio and music types.

Neither of these catch the fake MiME types sent be some bad websites. But they need deeper config tricks based on how the site alters the traffic.

Further, does http_reply_access allow use of 'time' acl used in conjunction with itself?


Yes. http_reply_access can use any of the same types and http_access as well as the extra reply types.

The one hitch with http_reply_access is that the request has already been sent and the object is already being received back by the time it is checked. So a whole lot of bandwidth might get wasted on a reply-based denial.
