No, we didn't find out how they were blocking obfs4. Justin suspects
it's not an IP blacklist because neither the default Tor Browser bridges
nor custom bridges worked. He tried setting iat-mode=1 (activating
packet timing obfuscation) on the client, and obfs4 was still detected.
We didn't have an iat-mode=1 server to test timing obfuscation in both
directions.
