We inherit the distro-wide "non-product" defaults, which are NOT the same as 
the "Workstation" defaults. Those "non-product" defaults that we also ship 
on the KDE Spin are the same as in previous releases: only mDNS is open for 
incoming connections by default. And of course DHCP, including DHCPv6. (On 
non-live spins also sshd (incoming SSH), but that gets disabled on the live 
images, as in the past.) Outgoing ports are all open by default, as they 
have always been. We do NOT open thousands of incoming ports by default as 
the GNOME "Workstation" "Product" spin does.
