This is correct, and I, for one am glad Debian has kept up to pressure
to changing it ("but... but... Ubuntu can do, why can't Debian?").
Sometimes freedom isn't to be had without knowledge. It can be sometimes
inconvenient, but we're here to help each other and try our best...
This is one of those cases: if you're using a piece of non-free software,
you should know about it, and you should know which buy decision led to
it (so you can take that into account at your next buy decision).
Soapbox free now. Next, please ;-)
Cheers
