oh this is interesting, and news to me. i suspect there is much here i need
to learn.

however, if we reframe OONI's mission as "we're interested in certain kinds
of network outages", then OONI's goals become a strict superset of Atlas's
goals.

it seems we could at least get them on board for putting Atlas
probes/anchors next to major Tor relays. then if anything goes amiss not
only do we register it as a "censorship event", RIPE registers it as a
"network/connectivity degradation". And that latter point can only help
OONI.
