<h1>Anticache</h1>
</div>
<p>When the <strong>anticache</strong> option is passed to mitmproxy, it removes headers
(<strong>if-none-match</strong> and <strong>if-modified-since</strong>) that might elicit a
304-not-modified response from the server. This is useful when you want to make
sure you capture an HTTP exchange in its totality. It's also often used during
<a href="clientreplay.html">client replay</a>, when you want to make sure the
server responds with complete data.</p>
