Yeah, can other people connect to the proxy I set up? Depends on your config. If you didn’t restrict access, then yeah, anyone who knows your IP could use it.
Check your squid.conf file for lines like `acl localnet src 192.168.1.0/24`—that limits it to your local network. No restrictions? Then it’s wide open.
To see active connections, try `squidclient mgr:active_requests` or just `netstat -tulnp | grep squid`.
Risk? High. Random folks could abuse it for shady stuff, and you’d get blamed. Lock it down ASAP.
