Abrowser as the default web browser in Trisquel would be a freedom issue. Not
in the shallower sense of licensing and such, but in the deeper sense that
what we value (as I understand it) is the user's freedom to choose what
software to use with their system, or not, at all times. In the same way, do
we not value the user's freedom to choose what software their system can
connect with over a network, or not, at all times?
I like the way you keep switching from "I" to a mysterious "we". I personally
value the freedom to choose what the software I use does, for instance the
freedom to turn off any Sync-like functions in my browser. Abrowser already
ships with that freedom, so I'm fine with it.
I do not consider freedom as in free software licenses to be a "shallow"
sense of freedom, but on the contrary to be the basis of any kind of freedom
the user can ultimately benefit from, including what software to choose and
what servers they wish to trust, or not.
