		//
		// However, in the case of a passive MiM that's just recording traffic or an active MiM that's targeting
		// something other than Psiphon, the client will connect. This is a successful outcome.
		//
		// What is exposed to the MiM? The Host header does not contain a Psiphon server IP address, just an
		// unrelated, randomly generated domain name which cannot be used to block direct connections. The
		// Psiphon server IP is sent over meek, but it's in the encrypted cookie.
		//
		// The payload (user traffic) gets its confidentiality and integrity from the underlying SSH protocol.

		// as Psiphon to possibly block it; but note that not revealing that the client is Psiphon is outside
		// our threat model; we merely seek to evade mass blocking by taking steps that require progressively
		// more effort to block.
		//
		// There is a subtle attack remaining: an adversary that can MiM some CDNs but not others (and so can
		// classify Psiphon traffic on some CDNs but not others) may throttle non-MiM CDNs so that our server
		// selection always chooses tunnels to the MiM CDN (without any server cert verification, we won't
