When I was a young child my family had a "Dirt Devil" brand vacuum cleaner. My mother put some masking tape over the "Devil" part of the vacuum's logo because she was uncomfortable with the word. She certainly wouldn't do the same today, but just to be clear, FreeBSD isn't singled out as much as you think.
