Comment (by cohosh):
Updated this ticket with recent test results. I've changed the tests to
measure which stage the ICE protocol got to on the client side. I switched
to using stun.ekiga.net in China since the Google STUN servers started
getting blocked. It seems once they blocked those stun servers, all
snowflake bridges became reachable again. I've confirmed that
stun.l.google.com is still being blocked.
Some of the plots look weird (only the Chinese location access them). This
is probably due to an imperfect pcap parsing script that accidentally
records the VPS's own IP address as the snowflake's IP.
