Exactly. Had they shipped Debian, I would have some respect for them as
Debian clearly marks all non-free software. I use Debian myself and I
have GPU and WiFi blobs installed but I know full well what they are and
I explicitly has given an order to install them.

Ubuntu on the other hand install tons of proprietary crap without asking
the user. I would never have respect for companies who ship computers
with Ubuntu.

Debian is a compromise, but a compromise I'm willing to make. Ubuntu is
tyranny.
