Comment (by irl):

 I think, as long as it doesn't run any tests by default, running the agent
 by default is OK.

 We can provide a /usr/share/doc/ooniprobe/README.Debian to cover how to
 configure ooniprobe to run tests, and we can also give a NEWS entry that
 will be displayed on upgrade to let users know that their previous cron
 job will be removed and that they will need to tell ooniprobe to run
 measurements.

 Tor starts up and runs by default, but until you connect to the SOCKS port
 it won't send any traffic over the circuits, though they are built. If
 you're installing ooniprobe, I think it's reasonable to assume that users
 want to run it.
