New description:

 [https://metrics.torproject.org/userstats-censorship-
 events.html?start=2016-01-01&end=2016-12-31 top 10 list for 2016]
 [[Image(top10censorship-2016-marked.png)]]
 The marked countries have a very low client count and the predicted lower
 value is zero.
 Similarly, the downturns in country specific censorship events, for
 example [https://metrics.torproject.org/userstats-relay-
 country.html?start=2016-01-01&end=2016-12-31&country=an&events=on
 Netherlands Antilles in 2016] [[Image( userstats-relay-country-
 an-2016-03-01-2016-09-30-on.png)]]

 I attache a simple path.
