description:
By running a Tor relay, you can help make the Tor network:
- faster (and therefore more usable)
- more robust against attacks
- more stable in case of outages
-- safer for its users (spying on more relays is harder than on a few)

description:
- A bridge is a node in the network that is not listed in the public Tor directory, making it harder for ISPs and governments to block it.
- Bridges are relatively easy, low-risk, and low bandwidth Tor relays to operate.
-- And there's another special kind of bridge: Pluggable transports. It hides your Tor traffic by adding a layer of obfuscation.
