Would this make Firefox a 'restricted' package for future releases? As it would tend to go against the principles behind Ubuntu.

I would suggest that an alternative 'unrestricted' browser be used as default in the next release and then let the user make the jump to their prefered browser and its legal requirements. I suspect that once Chrome becomes available officially for Ubuntu/Linux it will have a EULA, so let FF live beside that in the repos.

I do not believe we have done anything to warrant this action by Mozilla and as a user for 2 years now I am very disappointed. It really does go against the overall Ubuntu community spirit.
