Speaking of which:
https://metrics.torproject.org/users.html#direct-users
keeps going up

while
https://metrics.torproject.org/users.html#userstats
looks like it's going down again

yet
https://metrics.torproject.org/network.html#dirbytes
looks a lot more like the first curve.

Does this change your mind any?
