You aren't sacrificing freedom when using a PPA as long as the software  
within it is free software. Just double check the type of project and the  
licensing before installing it.

Another example is the PPA at https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/php5  
which recently gave me PHP 5.4.17 for my server and is backported from Debian  
unstable. Is it free software? Of course!
