Comment (by antonela):
Great, so
- we will move users to the `Network Settings` screen if something wrong
happens.
- I have a +1 about removing firewall options too.

> If the user pressed the "connect" button without configuring a
bridge/PT, then maybe we should automatically try one of the built-in
bridges if bootstrapping fails. We can choose one or two at random from
the list (probably obfs4). This isn't any worse than letting tor bootstrap
directly (which is already did, and failed).
I like this idea! Though, I could approach the flow differently: If the
connection fails, we move the user to the `Network Settings` screen. Here,
the user will be allowed to enable "Internet is censored here" option.
Note that I'm not mentioning Tor but Internet. We can discuss it once
we'll review the copy.
Once the user switches ON that option, TBA can "choose one or two at
random from the list (probably obfs4)". Then the user will back to the
main screen, and the bootstrapping will continue/happen.
If users want to have a different bridge configuration, then they can
press `Change` and so do it.
What do you think?
