Thank you very much for taking time to write an article about gNewSense!

The version of the Linux kernel present inside Ubuntu is non free.
It has non free firmware (that we call blobs) inside.


It has repositories with non free software inside activated by default.

It has Firefox that suggests (= make it easy to install) non free
plugins such as Adobe Flash.



Feel free to add more.
