"One does not simply suggest, that one is unblockable..."

I was more referring to my own personal experience working within the
Tor community, and their human+organizational response to increased
throttling and filtering by Iran in the past, than a specific technical
capability. I do also feel the work that Tor has been helping push,
promote and fund on obfuscated transports is extremely important, as is
their community/volunteer approach to building a sustainable bridge and
obfuscated bridge hosting capacity.

Again, these are not specific technical features, but more the process
by which I have seen Tor respond to adversity.

Obviously, with the numbers you are sharing for Psiphon (3 million users
is outstanding!), you know what you are doing, and have a great system
to respond to these events, as well. Keep doing what you are doing!!
