 At the Montreal meeting we discussed how OONI data can be used to make the
 Tor Launcher workflow simpler and safer for users. Specifically, if we ask
 users the country in which they are located, Tor Launcher could, in some
 cases, decide to automatically connect to Vanilla tor, or to a specific
 bridge type, or to ask the users further questions. The basic data on
 whether Vanilla Tor will work from a given country should be available
 relatively soon.

 This ticket can serve as a discussion/parent ticket for the data analysis,
 UX analysis UI design, Tor Launcher patching, etc.
