You did not say what you want Squid to do, so it is difficult to say
whether the config is correct. However, the following combinations look
strange to me:

* old "none" and new "peek" actions; use "splice" instead of "none"
* sometimes contradictory "peek" and "stare" actions; pick one kind
* sometimes contradictory "peek" and "bump" actions; if you intend to
bump, use "stare"

Also, you may want to use ssl::server_name ACL instead of dstdomain.
Remember that Squid may have no domain information until it is too late
to splice. Here is a polished config that may or may not do what you want:

  # Bump aggressively, including discovered-too-late broken_sites:
  acl ssl_bump_broken_sites ssl::server_name ...
  ssl_bump splice ssl_bump_broken_sites
  ssl_bump stare all
  ssl_bump bump all

"ssl_bump bump" implies intrusiveness. You need to decide whether
bumping connections is important enough to be intrusive. The alternative
is passive monitoring/splicing that does not require intrusive changes
but gives you less control. Pick your poison.
