I think it would be interesting see as to whether allowing bridges to
have dynamic IPs (or even encouraging it) would make them harder to
block, and would make it really easy for people to contribute to the
network in this small way? Or at least, having a mostly dynamic IP -
some devices change their IP address more frequently than others, if my
understanding is correct?
