+[Free system distributions][distros] are committed to only
+distributing information for practical use when it's free.  They go

+in—but a lot of software goes into a distribution, and it's not
+practical to check it all.  People who report nonfree software in one
+of these endorsed distributions can be rewarded with GNU Bucks.
