because you put default bridges that are not working this has resulted in
tor not working via android in a country where tor is otherwise
inaccessible
even if you change default bridges from your side it will only work for
some time until they get blocked again !!
this happened several times before in previous versions so this means the
concerned country is now systematically targeting default bridges and bans
them by creating blocking rules which is easy to implement country wise
because default bridges dont change
the immediate solution is to allow manual input of more than 3 bridges in
torbrowser just like orbot, otherwise torbrowser will not work in an
entire country for android users !
