No worries; it's not your fault at all.  I think we should be logging sensitive
info at those levels anyway (see #17193). [0]

Governments (and some other parties, like your network admin, your ISP, etc.)
could certainly block Tor, including blocking Bridges.  There are many ways that
they could do this, some with various consequences (for that government/etc.).
A simple example would be if your government only allowed traffic to
http://cnn.com:80, and then block anything that doesn't look like plaintext HTTP
of someone reading CNN articles.  Obviously, this would be ridiculous if a
government did this, as pretty much all commerce, banking, online education, and
a million other things would completely stop.

However, without knowing more details about your specific situation, I can't
really determine if/how Tor is blocked for you.
