I can't bear this flamewar FSF vs Debian : Debian have a really clear 
policy on what software freedom is (DFSG guidelines), and have contrary 
to any other linux distro a "clearly separated on freedom basis" 
distribution model : free, contrib and non-free (non-us has disappeared 
for years but was even more a user freedom against US crypto restrictions).

Debian offers to it's users the choice on what they want/don't want to 
use (or they are in obligation to use, as some non-free kernel blobs), 
and debian-legal is active in case of doubt.

And "main", made exclusively of free software, is the only active by 
default.

I suspect FSF to point-out Debian because FSF itself have a non-free 
licence regarding DFSG.
