Even if this was meant (also) as a duplicate of T110, we can reuse it to track (only) the related issue of avoiding Javascript not Free licensed.

sean.obrien triaged T609: firefox-esr - links to search engine which loads non-free JavaScript as Low priority.

It seems to me that the issue here is the question of the licensing status of JavaScript loaded by DuckDuckGo.

I tried installing the firmware-realtek package and it worked. So it would seem that
my hardware is incompatible with free software. I believe that the game changer was the firmware binary rtl8188eufw.bin and not the driver alone.

PureOS avoid code which Debian or the GNU project considers nonfree - despite others (inlcuding kernel developers) having different opinions regarding licensing and the need for sources of code/data/blobs.

mak added a comment to T620: clamav: Needlesly forked (package does not promote nonfree software).

Originally these choices were made because we were asked to remove the references on the FSF mailinglist to get PureOS endorsed. They also asked us to remove the "non-free" component reference from the APT manual pages.
However, nobody seems to insist on that anymore, and your reasoning makes sense to me, so I will gladly resynchronize this package with Debian.

mak added a comment to T375: Please make a dev/pureos/changes nofications Matrix/Riot room.

It's on my todo list and will likely be added after the current refactoring is over. The tricky thing here is that Laniakea delegates most archive actions to dak, and I would need to hook into dak to make this feature work properly (which means without email parsing) and integrate it with the generic Laniakea messaging.
This feature will also require our sysadmins to allow bots in some way on our Matrix instance (at the moment, I have no way to actually register a Matrix bot).
