 Do you mind Tor Browser binaries being shipped in [https://www.whonix.org
 Whonix] by default?

 Do you think the [https://www.torproject.org/docs/trademark-faq.html.en
 Tor trademark] is concerned?

 At the moment it is not installed by default, which cannot be a trademark
 violation. However, it gets downloaded by
 [https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Tor_Browser#Tor_Browser_Downloader_by_Whonix
 tb-updater] most likely after installation of Whonix by the user. So it is
 rather useless and user experience degrading to not ship it by default.

 Could you grant permission please for shipping Tor Browser by default in
 Whonix?

 A short answer "You may do so." would be very much appreciated!
