It surely was on-topic here to talk about whether unfree binary blobs should be included in Fedora.

I wonder why nobody's complaining about all this traffic on this non-technical thread on a list that people complained was supposed to be restricted to technical content. Heck, why was the discussion even started here? Double standards, as usual?
Do we really want to say that if any ethical question arises during discussion on Fedora lists, people may not address it?
Seems like that's the general feeling of those who demand silence about it. Perhaps a separate list named "fedora-truth" or "fedora-ethics", for this kind of discussion, would make it clear enough that truth and ethics are not welcome on other lists.
Or maybe the support list should be named fedora-immoralist ;-P :-D
