Yes, I use that as well.  But that's an "opt-in", and it's rather crude
(and operates after the fact).  I think Debian would benefit from having
this kind of mechanism be much more "in your face" (and more
informative/educational).  It would make it more acceptable (to me,
anyway) to distribute install-media with non-free firmwares, knowing that
those firmware won't be enabled silently).

FWIW, I only ever run it by hand.  I can't remember disabling any
monthly cron job nor receiving any email from it, OTOH.  I guess it
somehow guessed that I'd prefer to run it by hand ;-)
