I want to see the FSF advising Fedora what it can do to influence the
hardware vendors to not use firmware blobs without killing off our user

rhetoric.
We need to convince the open source movement to join with us in
boycotting those companies whose hardware has no drivers.
Our efforts would be better spent educating users and providing a
platform for the companies. In the instance of firmware drivers the
difference between utopia and what is reasonable isn't that large. Most
users won't go out of their way to boycott a company since "binary
drivers" != "killing kittens"
