Comment(by sukhbir):

 Replying to [comment:2 arma]:
 > For tiny things, we should not complexify the interface by asking the
 user to specify which one she wants. We should just provide all of them,
 along with enough explanation to help the user recognize what they are (so
 she can decide which one to try).

 We now have Dropbox support where we upload the files to Dropbox and
 generate a link. Dropbox supports both HTTP and HTTPS. A sample URL looks
 like this:

 {{{
 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/$USERID/$FILENAME
 }}}

 So if we distribute it through HTTP and the censor blocks the URL, we can
 always get a new user ID and generate a new one. With HTTPS, we should be
 fine. (The process is automated.)

 I have not changed anything on the GetTor and distribution side though
 because we should discuss on what would you prefer to send and how.
