(like TProxy) for BSD systems (among other features). The feature was
highly demanded and Squid project also implemented it later for BSD
systems. Now Lusca is not so popular.

I do not think that someone is authorized to make official statements by
the developers. On behalf of any of its own community.

But who would argue. You can always make a fork. Just got another indoor
bike. Received another 2049-Linux distribution. I do not think that this
is something to aspire to any open society.

And the trend is obvious. Large Internet companies pay a lot of money
for advertising, and they absolutely do not care about users and their
traffic. Arises only one rhetorical question. Key developers think about
the users or large companies with their income?

Actually, it's completely pointless debate. Developer position for a
long time, we all know. "You can modify the code and go to the devil."

I do not see the point in any further discussion, Harry. Your position
is quite clear.
