That's as may be. I am a software user and a programmer. Don't presume
that just because I use Ubuntu I think this or that way, don't put
words in my mouth, and don't try to represent me without my consent.
If your point is valid, I'll embrace it.

Ubuntu includes plenty of software that isn't exactly licensed as
"free", though it's licensed under other open source licenses, or in
the public domain. Get that straight. It even includes some software
that is not free, under certain repositories, as do most distributions
in one way or another. Just because it's not on the CD doesn't mean
it's less important.

Understand that I would agree with your points, but not presented like this.
