Comment (by cohosh):

 > I'm not sure item 3, tracking where proxies are blocked, is necessarily
 a priority. Round-the-clock proxy-go was never meant to be a permanent
 thing, only a stopgap until we have actual organic proxies (#20813). The
 idea is that eventually we don't rely on long-lived proxies running at
 static IP addresses, because if we do that we're playing the bridge
 distribution game, and doing it worse than BridgeDB does. IMO the browser
 extension (#23888) is the priority for getting actually diverse
 snowflakes.
 This makes sense to me, I think we do need to do something about item 2 as
 well though. I wasn't able to test the behaviour of tor browser at the VPS
 but just the Tor client was having trouble quickly deciding whether or not
 the proxy was being blocked. I suppose this won't be as big an issues when
 we have more diverse proxies though.
