Its up to you where you draw the line. We're not in the business of trying to control your computing (that's what non-free software does), contrary to what some critics tend to say.

But if you choose to use non-free software, we won't help you with that.

Speaking of which, I have a laptop whose wifi card requires non-free firmware. Windows works with it, of course, but I'd rather not use Windows. For the long term I'll buy a freedom respecting wifi card (preferably PCMCIA, if there are any that are freedom-compatible) but for now I'm seriously considering using the proprietary firmware as a short-term solution. I figure it's either that or Windows, so I'd best choose the lesser evil.
