Comment (by phw):

 Replying to [ticket:32781 hiro]:
 > Tor is currently using bridgedb to distribute bridges to censored users.
 > Bridgedb uses email distribution mainly which is not very effective when
 facing a high efficient censor like the GFW.
 [[br]]
 For what it's worth, email is our least popular distribution method. The
 most popular one is moat, followed by HTTPS, followed by email. See #32135
 for diagrams.
