 We often see complaints by users that large sites are blocking Tor
 outright or are making it [#33457 very hard to access] them. We should try
 to find contacts at those sites that are generally Tor-friendly and with
 whom we could try to resolve or mitigate the problems that led to Tor
 blocking in the first place.

 It's worth to not just focus on site owners as they often "just" deploy
 things and the actual blocking is done by entities in the middle, like
 Akamai or Cloudflare, or it is enabled in the first place by (random) Tor
 nodes added to a blocklist by entities that are curating those. Thus, it
 is worth reaching out to those groups as well.

 This ticket is a parent ticket and we should file child tickets for
 particular sites/parties we want to reach out to.
