Just a curiosity. gNewSense is the totally free version of Debian, following FSF distro criteria. Debian main default version is totally free, as you can see on FSF statement on h-node.org. There are many differences with Debian Main default old (old)stable release: http://gnewsense.org/Documentation/3/DifferencesWithDebian
My question is: is Debian main default version really totally free?

This is a recurrent question. You will probably find the answers you want in this (very long and very trolly) thread: https://trisquel.info/forum/difference-between-linux-libre-kernel-and-debian-main-kernel

Ciao Sansonetto,

 

I lived in Rome for 3.5 years from 1999 to 2002, but only learned street Italian.  Are you well versed in Trisquel, as I need a teacher and can't seem to find one. Drop me a line.
 

Ho habito a Roma per 3,5 anni dal 1999 al 2002, ma solo imparato strada Italiana. Sei esperto in Trisquel, come ho bisogno di un insegnante e non riesco a trovare uno. Mi mandi due righe.

No debian is not free because it use by default the blobbed version of the
kernel.

And the most important, Debian does not promote free software

Ok, so in conclusion Debian is near to be recommended, but developers should
take more seriusly the work.
