+Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) attempt to prevent users from accessing
+the Tor network by blocking connections to known Tor relays. Bridge relays (or
+<i>bridges</i> for short) are relays that help these censored users access the

+public directories as normal relays. Since there is no complete public list of
+them, even if your ISP is filtering connections to all the known Tor relays,
 they probably won't be able to block all the bridges.
