I'd love to hear your solution - besides writing "magic" into squid to intentionally break or alter (some would use much harsher language) content you do not own. Content others areproviding for free.Finding ways to force object revalidation by an intermediary cache (so the end origin server knows something has been fetched) and thus allowing the cache to serve the content on behalf of the contentorigintor, under their full control, but without the bits being served.
Excellent idea. It is a shame content owners do not see the utility in your idea.
To bring this back to an operational topic, just because a content owner does not want to work with someone on this, does the lack of external bandwidth / infrastructure / whatever make it "OK" to install a proxy which will intentionally re-write the content?
