does the following also apply if a Tor users chooses to use a bridge?

Will tor ensure that the relays are not in the same /16 netblock with the bridge?

Yes, as each node is added to the path, its IPv4 address is checked

against the IPv4 /16 netblocks of the existing nodes in the path.

This includes relays and bridges.

There is no support for checking IPv6 addresses yet:

https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24393

But when there is, we will check IPv6 /32s, for those nodes that have IPv6

addresses.
