Please don't raise straw men like that. There is a large difference between allowing the sites you mention versus directing the user to install non-free software on their computer. Henry is only talking about the latter in this point, it is relevant to the effort being discussed in this forum, and your mischaracterisation is unfair. > There is non-free software, our users will use it, and pretending it > doesn't exist is a pretty bad idea. Again, Henry is not proposing that; please address the points he is actually raising. -- \ “We are human only to the extent that our ideas remain humane.” | `\ —_Breakfast of Champions_, Kurt Vonnegut | _o__) | Ben Finney
