Have we changed?
The Debian folks decided the GFDL is not a free license, so they are in
the process of moving all documents with that license out of main and
into non-free. The rationale is found here:

This has nothing to do with DRM media.
Removing ``offensive'' docs from main is a higher priority than
reinserting them in non-free. In the case of the emacs manual there was
a delay of a week or so between removal and subsequent reinstatement.
Once the process is complete I guess it won't be an issue. Everyone who
wants to read the manuals will enable the non-free repos, and anyone
that finds them unethical will never need to see them again.
