 > > For quick diagnosis of problems, it would be great if the bandwidth
 scanners added some contact information to the output. We are planning to
 add contact strings to exit scanners.

 > Let's not specify another unstructured contact string, please.
 >
 > Instead, if we need to email someone, let's specify an operator email
 address.

 look at how much trouble we've had tracking down who runs the default
 bridges in Tor Browser #30121
 >
 > Do we need contact information ... initially knowing who runs the
 scanners (usually the same dirauth)?.
