Tor Browser ships with a number of default bridges. These bridges are hard-coded in the [Tor Browser](https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-build.git/tree/projects/common/). The following table is meant to be an authoritative list of our default bridges plus the people who operate these bridges. Whenever we add, remove, or change any of our default bridges, make sure to commit this change to the following repositories:

The following is an informal list of requirements that we have for default bridges:
The following is an informal list of requirements that we have for default bridges:
* A reliable network link that can handle at least a sustained 100 Mbit/s of traffic.
* A reliable network link that can handle at least a sustained 100 Mbit/s of traffic.
* Any modern CPU can sustain at least 100 MBit/s. A CPU with the AES-NI extension is particularly helpful because it allows Tor to offload its AES operations to the CPU.

In order to get metrics on our default bridges use, we need to publish the bridge descriptors. However, we do not want this bridge to be distributed over BridgeDB. To achieve this, ensure the following torrc options are set:
