 Browsing to https://bridges.torproject.org/ from Germany using an English
 Firefox, I am served a page that shows headlines in English, but the rest
 (as far as I checked) is in German. This language choice is surprising to
 me as I think the browser’s language as transmitted in the HTTP headers
 should be the main factor. Strangely, using the Tor Browser and declining
 the question whether I want to request English content for improved
 anonymity, I get a page that is fully German despite my exit node being in
 the UK, so geolocating can not be the sole criterion for this language
 choice either. This might become a problem because the website does not
 seem to offer a means for switching the language.
