Sorry for jumping in but system can know if squid is running or not. Maybe when rc init script is running it will not but system definitely known if the software runs. This is since it was designed to follow the software when it runs.
I can suggest an alternative squid.service for systemd that will replace the rc init scrtipt.

Same goes if I use default config file. The default config from Debian disables access through the proxy. You have to enable the localnet ACL for anything to work. Start by deciding what you want the proxy to do.

It cannot tell whether Squid-3 is runnign or not. If Squid was ever started systemd will say "active (running)" even if Squid aborted.
