Thanks amos ,
What about if it was for ISP and the ssl pump is impossible since it will break the privacy and will  need user end user agreement to pass the websites  .


Im asking regarding facebook since its 100 % https
And asking about youtube videos  since its 100 % https

I don’t know how companies like cachevideis & cachemara still offer videos caching so far  ??!!!!

That depends on whether the Squid you are using has HTTPS decryption
capabilities (SSL-Bump) built.

Possibly. But their methods will not be the same as it was in the past.
YT content should be prefectly cacheable. But its devs have decided to
fight against letting HTTP working properly for the YT site.

"Squid" is a proxy for general Internet usage. Hard-coding into it
logics to cache one specific website, which may change at any time and
break that code, it is not appropriate.

There are still people offering Squid extensions that do YT caching.
They have kind of gone underground again once it became clear that every
time anyone documented in public how to cache the videos YT developers
would suddenly change how the system worked and break that method of
caching.

FYI: SquidVideosBooster is one product that offers video caching
extensions to Squid if you are looking for one. You will need to combine
it with ssl-bump usage.
