   Very early on Stallman wanted Debian to be the flagship free distro. But they got tired of him telling them what to do. It's free to me.

     The non-free repos are not enabled by default. Good enough for me, but not for the FSF.

     You don't have to disable them. They are already disabled. You have to enable them to use them.

     No. There is nothing to remove. Unless you want to physically remove all the packages from the servers worldwide. That might cause trouble.

     You enable non free repos by editing a configuration file and adding them. So if you didn't know how to do that the distro would be FSF free

     It isn't there in the first place. So no need to remove it.
