How come nonfree JS is not the issue? It's one of the issues
that's enough to disqualify these websites. Other issues you
mentioned are valid too. Iceweasel doesn't come with any
functionality to block nonfree JS out of the box (LibreJS,
NoScript, etc.). So I think it shouldn't contain any links to
websites that serve nonfree JS.
