You can still install and configure tor on any install. I think it pretty unlikely that tor setup would be default on all installs. Tor is slow, many people don't want it. Having a spin where it's setup and configured for you could be a useful starting point for some people who desire that.

There's (as always) many ways to the same goals here. * A spin that is configured so people have an example and starting point. * Better out of the box config on packages (like tor) that make it easier to set them up and configure things to use them. * Better docs on how to do the above. Look at all that choice! kevin
