Citation:

> ~97% of all web-sited world-wide use encryption via https://, where transparent proxying is useless. Not using encryption is no longer "state of the art" and you risk violating the DSGVO by not using it.
> Setting up encryption is easy for everyone using Let's encrypt.

The extended manual about networking is all about proxy settings and has a section about transparent proxy setup. It doesn't work for HTTPS. We should therefore remove this section for UCS 5.2
