Software freedom is a means to furthering our vision of providing technology to all, regardless of means, physical and technical capability or culture. This is why the GNOME project has always been concerned about design, usability, internationalisation and localisation, accessibility, and as you point out, user freedom. Freedom is not useful unless people have the means to benefit from it.
