> The "Learn more" link goes to the Tor Browser manual in *general* but
seems to indicate that the user gets to know more about why the guard node
is not changing in *particular*. I wonder whether we should link to a
dedicate guard related section in the manual instead (which has to get
written yet).
Yes, we definitely should.
> Looking at https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#EntryGuards it
seems to me we are talking only about public relays and not private ones
(i.e. bridges) when considering guards to the Tor network. However, the UI
shows "Guard" and "Your Guard node may not change. Learn more", too, in
cases where users have configured bridges. I think this is misleading and
we should avoid that.
Good point. Here's a new version that hides the "Guard" stuff when a
bridge is being used:
