any built in ability for a vpn or tor?

my concern is mining at home over clearnnet

The full node unit is a mini desktop computer. You can install any app and configure any service you wish include both of the above.

except you can't run anything which uses CPU because controller will overheat and entire miner may shutdown. That's by design to keep device quiet, apparently.
C-Lightning doesn't need a lot of resources. I will definitely try to do it in like 3 steps:
1) Blockchain IBD
2) C-Lightning setup
3) Start mining

Do you know if we can get the nice web interface that comes on the image files onto a clean Debian install (or similar)?
And where did you get the miner binary from, again?

I may be going to create a guide to replicate my setup eventually, since I see a lot of people here try to kind of do what it's advertised to do (be a full computer with potential for installing LN etc.) but have no idea how.
