 The Emirates Telecommunications Corporation, also known as Etisalat,
 started blocking Tor using DPI on June 25 2012. It seems they are doing
 something similar to Ethiopia (#6045) and Kazakhstan (#6140), but we
 should figure out how these cases are different.

 We know that:
  * The three bridges in  https://blog.torproject.org/blog/update-
 censorship-ethiopia are working. These are bridges with a patch that
 removes 0x0039 from SERVER_CIPHER_LIST.
