Public bug reported: I get intermittent 403 errors using squid-deb-proxy. If I keep retrying eventually it will work, so this isn't a configuration issue. I have looked into the squid logs and haven't found anything that stuck out as an issue. I see these occurring on both Ubuntu URLs and 3rd party URLs like Google.
