I was reading through the wiki and found this,

* Debian does not include software that is encumbered by software patents.

This statement is correct for Fedora, but we have many *known* patent
encumbered software in our repos like mp3 codec, ffmpeg etc. So I
think, this item can be removed.

You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your
rights from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as
they follow the rules: laws and constitution.
