I can't image a single reason why Tor should be configured to run a relay without the system admins knowledge.

Debian did this - I'm not sure if it does that any more.

`apt-get install tor` used to run an exit relay unless you uncomment "ExitPolicy reject *:*" in torrc. I had the same problem a few years ago, suddenly captchas started appearing everywhere after installing tor.
