Red Hat Enterprise Linux has long included non-free content such as
Java, Adobe Acrobat reader, Adobe Flash, etc...  Having a Desktop
release based on RHEL it doesn't seem that surprising that it would
include the same kind of things, possibly more.  While unfortunate for
that product, it has no bearing as to whether or not things like that
would ever make it into Fedora.
