Considering that we don't include the non-free or contrib repositories
by default, you have to have explicitely asked to get non-free or
contrib packages, so this complaint is kind of irrelevant.

You can just use apt-cache policy; if you want to know.

CNN/Reuters: News reports have filtered out early this morning that US
forces have swooped on an Iraqi Primary School and detained 6th Grade 
teacher Mohammed Al-Hazar. Sources indicate that, when arrested,
Al-Hazar was in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square and
a calculator. US President George W Bush argued that this was clear
and overwhelming evidence that Iraq indeed possessed weapons of maths 
instruction.
