[tor-talk] What prevents China from manually requesting bridges and than blocking them?

[Justin]

Hi,
From what I know, you’re correct.  The Chinese use a lot of people to get bridges, or maybe they created a bonnet that can do it for them, either way they’ve done exactly what you said.  They have managed to block the automated bridge distribution methods.
