Why do you think it violates Freedom 0? IANAL but AIUI a statement
as to what a program is designed to do adds additional consumer
warranty rights here in the UK, and in no way constrains the use of
the software because the plain English meaning does not convey a
restriction. Admittedly flashvideodownloader.org is a SAAS server
and the user would be wise not to use the plug-in because of that.
But it doesn't make the plug-in non-free.

The source is usually in the xpi file. I looked at one extension
"Flash Video
Downloader" and the mozilla addons page says MPL 1.1, but when I
opened the
xpi, I found a file with the following contents:
Before getting down to using this plug-in, please, take the time to
read the
terms of use stated in the current license agreement. Any use of
this program
implies that you have read and accepted these terms to the fullest
extent.
1) Flash Video Downloader Plug-In is designed for downloading
flash-content
(video, games, music, etc.) with the help of the
http://flashvideodownloader.org/ service, which gets opened in a
new Firefox
Internet browser window when needed.
2) All the information received by http://flashvideodownloader.org/
is used
solely for purposes listed in clause 1.
3) http://flashvideodownloader.org/ disclaims any legal
responsibility for
further use of the content downloaded with the help of the service.
This is clearly nonfree as it violates Freedom 0.
