@FredBezies: You're even worse than the free software zealots. The only
thing I've read from you is abuse.

I think the Fedora situation is a good solution. It's not an EULA. It
just states that two optional services (not part of the program)
provided by Mozilla are subject to additional terms of use. One
improvement I could see though, is that those two options are off by
default. Then the notice could show how to explicitly enable them if you
agree with Mozilla's terms of use.

It's still a problem that the actual Firefox binary is non-free
software, but at least the short-term EULA problems can be solved this
way.
