+      Obfs4proxy is a tool that attempts to circumvent censorship by
+      transforming the Tor traffic between the client and the bridge.
+      This way censors, who usually monitor traffic between the client
+      and the bridge, will see innocent-looking transformed traffic
+      instead of the actual Tor traffic.  obfs4proxy implements the
+      obfsucation protocols obfs2, obfs3, and obfs4.  It is written in
+      Go and is compliant with the Tor pluggable transports
+      specification, and its modular architecture allows it to support
+      multiple pluggable transports.
