Fact: many people are addicted to the internet. If GNOME did not provide
a browser or even internet connectivity, GNOME could help them stop
using the internet.
So I've seen the "This Free and Open Source Project should educate its
users about non-free services!" opinion across several FOSS projects I
am/was involved in. "Make it harder for users to use non-free but
convenient services" is a great way to decrease your userbase, but
providing *better* services than the non-free ones and competing on the
market might be more sustainable. I won't stop you from doing that.
