It all depends on the proxy URL.
It the proxy URL is http://192.168.24.25/, then the client should send
GET requests to the proxy in both cases, and the proxy should send GET
or CONNECT to the origin server, depending on whether origin URL uses
SSL.
If the proxy URL is https://192.168.24.25/, then the client should send
CONNECT requests to the proxy, and the proxy should send GET or CONNECT
as appropriate.
Python-requests appears to implement only the first case.
Hope this helps,
