 When I open a freshly downloaded Tor Browser 8.0, and select
 {{{
 Tor Network Settings > Tor is Censored in my country > Select a built-in
 bridge > meek-azure
 }}}
 on Linux, it pops up 3(!) alert windows that say "Close Tor Browser. Tor
 Browser is already running but not responding. To open a new window, you
 must first close the existing Tor Browser process, or restart your system.
 If I close those three alerts but I don't close the main browser window,
 then Tor Browser continues to work, but is not using meek. (If I then
 restart Tor Browser, it does use meek as desired.)
