Make a telnet port-80 to another random website.

  If it goes through the proxy or another identifiable as part of the
same group the its an intercept proxy in your ISP.

  If only the website in question goes through the proxy then its
probably a reverse-proxy in the website CDN.

There is no difference from the client perspective. Only the proxy
admins perspective (as to which controls are available for use).
