- Briar uses the Tor network to connect users with their
- contacts. But in some countries, <a href="http://grobox.de/tor" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">access to Tor is blocked</a>.
- Briar will now try to detect this and use bridges to access the Tor
- network when needed. (Bridges are computers run by volunteers around
- the world that help to provide access to the Tor network when it's
- blocked.)
