Use Psiphon when Tor bridges are not reachable

We have been encouraged to use Psiphon as a circumvention technology.

Here's how to add it:

  • Start the Psiphon Library and get its SOCKS proxy port
  • Configure the Tor client run by Briar to proxy through Psiphon using the "Socks5Proxy" config setting (https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en)
  • The Tor client traffic egresses from the Psiphon server, connects to a Tor node, and gets to hidden services from there. Psiphon doesn't need to know about the hidden service part.
