I believe that morality clauses are the greatest threat to Free Software, particularly because they seem like a reasonable abridgement of the zeroth freedom when considered at first glance, and it is sometimes difficult to advocate against such abridgement without having nasty accusations thrown against you. Of all abridgements to software freedom, morality clauses seem to have found the widest popular support among people who style themselves as supporting Free Software.
