OONIPROBE
   Read this before running ooniprobe!
       Running ooniprobe is a potentially risky activity. This greatly depends on the jurisdiction in which  you
       are  in  and  which test you are running. It is technically possible for a person observing your internet
       connection to be aware of the fact that you are running ooniprobe. This means  that  if  running  network
       measurement tests is something considered to be illegal in your country then you could be spotted.

       Furthermore,  ooniprobe  takes  no  precautions  to  protect  the  install  target machine from forensics
       analysis.  If the fact that you have installed or used ooni probe is a liability for you, please be aware
       of this risk.

   What is this?
       ooniprobe  is the command line tool that volunteers and researches interested in contributing data to the
       project should be running.

       If you are interested in using ooniprobe from a graphical user interface refer to ooniprobe-agent and see
       how to run that.

       ooniprobe  allows  the user to select what test should be run and what backend should be used for storing
       the test report and/or assisting them in the running of the test.

       ooniprobe tests are divided into two categories: Traffic Manipulation and Content Blocking.

       Traffic Manipulation tests aim to detect the presence of some sort of tampering with the internet traffic
       between the probe and a remote test helper backend. As such they usually require the selection of a oonib
       backend component for running the test.

       Content Blocking are aimed at enumerating the kind of content that is blocked  from  the  probes  network
       point of view. As such they usually require to have specified an input list for running the test.


EXAMPLES
       Run the web_connectivity test on http://torproject.org:
          ooniprobe web_connectivity --url http://torproject.org/

       Run the http_invalid_request_line test to detect middleboxes:
          ooniprobe http_invalid_request_line

       Run the http_header_field_manipulation test to detect middleboxes:
          ooniprobe http_header_field_manipulation

       List all the available tests:
          ooniprobe -s

       Start the web user interface:
          ooniprobe -w
