This I like. Rather than imposing political agendas on all
users, people who do not like non-free software can just install it
on their machine. We can even make vrms be as obnoxious as we wish --
like asking on every install, every removal, and sending email every
5 seconds, deleting non-free software surreptitiously, whatever
people want on their machines.
It should not be imposed on users who have chosen to so
install the non-fee software.
