My bridges are completely updated.

That I would receive an error stating "No known working bridges found"
(my wording)
puzzled me. To this day, I am unable to connect using bridges at all.
Nothing has changed on my box so I'm at a total loss to explain this.

Recently, someone posted a question to the effect that how does a user
know which bridges are active and which are not?

I'd love to know that myself. And bridges don't work from here.
