Re: Squid + Squidguard Youtube URL video filtering

I cannot tell you how to do it with DNS entries since I think it is impossible and therefore I asked Benjamin to explain.

Allowing one single video and blocking all other videos on Youtube is not easy.
One cannot block by domain but must filter by full URL.
When HTTPS is used, full URLs can only be obtained/filtered using ssl_bump in peek+bump mode which is doable but not easy.
Once you have peek+bump working you can make two categories in ufdbGuard:
   category youtube with
      youtube.com/watch
   category allowedyoutubevideos with
      youtube.com/watch?v=ff9sDLGtnK8
and an acl like
   acl {
      allSystems {
         pass allowedyoutubevideos !youtube ...
      }
   ...

The above allows access to www.youtube.com but not to the blocked videos.
This is necessary since the youtube site also uses a set of URLs like
    https://www.youtube.com/sw.js
    https://www.youtube.com/service_ajax?name=signalServiceEndpoint
    etc.
which all must be allowed to be able to display/allow your single video.

Dear Marcus, please can you tell me the way to do what you suggest?

Suppose I want to block youtube.com but enable only one URL video
"https://www.youtube.com/embed/ff9sDLGtnK8?rel=0&showinfo=0";.

How should I set te DNS entries please?

OP asked about blocking Youtube but allowing a single Youtube video.
How would you do that with a couple of DNS entries ?

This might be painfully obvious to some who are in the know, but,
filtering youtube video content can be done with a lot less effort by simply
adding a couple dns entries for Googles safesearch servers.

yes, with ufdbguard you put
      youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEOID
in a urls file and create a URL table with ufdbGenTable.
ufdbGenTable adds many URLs automagically, i.e.
      youtube.com/embed/VIDEOID
      youtube.com/get_video_info?video_id=VIDEOID
      ytimg.googleusercontent.com/vi/VIDEOID
and many more.
