Why is it recommended to keep currently used tor bridges in secret? What information can attacker gather if he knows what bridges I use?

Bridges are a way for people to reach the network, because direct connection through a guard is blocked. So it makes sense to keep these working entry points secret, because otherwise a censor can also block them.

You might not need to keep them secret from trusted parties, but otherwise: Better safe than sorry :wink:
