First of all, AFAIK, bridge relays act as entry guards, meaning they *replace* the first step of your tor circuits, they don't extend them to 4 nodes.

When I say "entry guards" i mean entry guards from the perspective of a tor node acting as a client.

Am i mistaken in believing that a tor bridge relay acts as a client on behalf of the actual tor client behind it?

Or does the short list of bridge relays act as entry guards, and connect to other tor relays as the first hop tor relay?

Oh, I misread that. Nevermind!

Though I have another question!

How many bridge relays, with or without protocol obfuscation, can you use simultaneously?

Is there a limit? Can you configure that limit?

Are bridge relays in the list written to torrc chosen at random up to a certain limit?
