 Tor Browser Launcher would, for countries where we know Tor to either work
 for sure or not work for sure, advise users on whether to use a bridge or
 not.

 This does open the question of "How does Tor Launcher know the country of
 the user"?

 I think this is at the end of the day a UX question, that can have various
 ways of doing it. For example you can have the user input their country
 (but that is maybe a bit sketchy from the users perspective) or you could
 show them a list of countries where tor is known to work OK and a list of
 where it's known to not work.
