FS#908 - [kaccounts-integration]: to reconsider mentioning or disabling proprietary networks
Description:
In my opinion, this software shall be either removed, or features disabled to access either Google or Facebook, as those are proprietary networks.
Further, using those proprietary networks is steering users towards non-free software, directly, or indirectly, as many times Javascript need to be handled that is proprietary.
extra/kaccounts-integration 17.04.0-1 (kde-applications kdenetwork)
Small system to administer web accounts for the sites and services across the KDE desktop, including: Google, Facebook, Owncloud, IMAP, Jabber and others
See:
https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html
A free system distribution must not steer users towards obtaining any nonfree information for practical use, or encourage them to do so.
