BU 1.0

[noahlevenson]

BU 1.0 is to be the first version of BU that is technologically capable of achieving its stated business objectives -- that is, it can carry a meaningful quantity of real traffic, improving our blocking resistance and saving us some measurable quantity of dollars in bandwidth costs.

Here's what it'll take to get us there:

Tasks

Preview Give feedback

1. Improve balancer interaction
2. Introduce fault recovery
3. Make Freddie horizontally scalable
4. Make the egress server horizontally scalable
5. Add a BU protocol layer to help solve some of these problems (?)
6. On the censored side, enable BU for mobile users and solve any related NAT traversal issues
7. Enable a real whitelist, not just ad domains
8. Acquire X [TBD] DAU on the uncensored side

Adding a note via @myleshorton:

When we try updating quic-go, everything breaks. But we need to update quic-go, because we need to update our Go version. So while I'm doing surgery on the protocol stack (for fault recovery etc.) I need to figure out what's going on with quic-go and fix it.
