Comment (by dcf):

 Replying to [ticket:20216 dcf]:
 > Looking at bridge users, there is an increase right around 2016-08-20,
 the time of the first blocking, then an abrupt return to previous levels
 around 2016-09-03, the time of the second blocking.
 >
 > Looking at the graph of bridge users by transport, obfs4 continued
 working while obfs3 and vanilla were blocked.

 I accidentally swapped the images for these two paragraphs.
