Why would you expect this? Ubuntu includes proprietary software for
particular reasons like hardware support. Canonical hasn't given any
indication that they intend to make Ubuntu dependent on any proprietary
program. Why would they? It wouldn't be in their interest.
This is also a concern that has absolutely nothing to do with Canonical's
cooperation with Microsoft. Ubuntu isn't changing. It's Windows that is
changing.
