- Squid doesn't cache page(s), only (web) objects.
- The squidguard redirector returns an url being returned for squid to
fetch as a substitute for the blocked site, if so configured.
This url is then fetched by squid, and it's own freshness info, will
apply as to whether squid will cache it and related objects or not.

Can't understand that argument. But remember also, squid does not
know about 'pages'
