Comment:

 We don't really have much/enough info, debug logs may provide a little
 insight, packet dumps will help too. I'm moving to Obfsproxy, but this may
 not be correct either. Also CCing ioerror and asn.

 I should also probably clarify "But according to sysrqb there is no ssl
 handshake to mitm. so something else was used.". It's not that there isn't
 a TLS handshake it can MITM, but it would require it to MITM the obfs2/3
 key exchange, or at least detect that is was occurring - and this is
 fairly expensive.
