This has been fought endlessly, but their objections to Debian are
really rather precious: they're upset about things like the fact that
"people can readily learn about these nonfree packages by browsing
Debian's online package database" and that "the installer in some cases
recommends these nonfree firmware files for the peripherals on the
machine", although the blobs are, of course, no longer actually *in*
the main kernels.
