Hey David. What’s the current status of the talks with Amazon? Is this something I should follow up on? Shari

In February 2016, meek reached its highest heights ever in terms of number of users--15,000 concurrent--before settling back down to about 10,000, where it started the month. For a few days, when obfs3 was on the way down and obfs4 was on the way up, meek was the #1 most used pluggable transport. obfs4 is a story of its own: it exploded from 3,000 to 15,000 users, probably aided by the many new default high-bandwidth bridges added to Tor Browser recently. It's possible that the increased capacity of obfs4 has taken some of the pressure off meek.
We moved over 13 TB of traffic over all three services combined.
Reminder that if you configure your own CDN or App Engine account and point it at https://meek.bamsoftware.com/, you will be using a completely unlimited bridge, which will go faster and help save money.

== Amazon a.k.a. meek-amazon ==
We didn't have the unusually high charge for HTTPS requests this month that we had last month. December had 142M requests in the EU (Ireland) region; January had 805M; and February is back to 156M.
I set up additional pricing alarms. Apparently I crossed some kind of threshold for number of alarms, because they started charging for them, for the first time. The alarms cost $0.50.
Asia Pacific (Singapore) 247M requests $296.50 952 GB $141.52 Asia Pacific (Sydney) 1M requests $1.95 6 GB $0.91 Asia Pacific (Tokyo) 29M requests $35.42 225 GB $29.68 EU (Ireland) 156M requests $188.05 1222 GB $96.31 South America (Sao Paulo) 9M requests $20.47 77 GB $18.33 US East (Northern Virginia) 94M requests $94.06 687 GB $54.13 -- total 538M requests $636.45 3171 GB $340.88 charge for alarms $0.50
