Why are all Snowflake proxies connecting to a single bridge (flakey)
instead of connecting to a normal relay of client`s choice, multiple
bridges or even connecting directly to the middle relay so that it
serves as a first hop in the three hop circuit?
Isn't this bad for the anonymity of Snowflake users since all users are
connecting through the same bridge?
Shouldn't Tor browser circuit display inform users that their connection
actually goes through 4 hops (This Browser--->Snowflake proxy--->Bridge
(flakey)--->Switzerland---->Germany---->Example.com) instead of three
hops (This Browser--->Bridge
(Snowflake)--->Germany--->Switzerland--->Example.com)?
