This is not as bad, but...

There's a package in Debian called "fortune-mod" that contains "offensive jokes" - racism, homophobia, misogyny etc. They refused to remove it because free speech or whatever.

    If the package is not malware, I actually would prefer the repo maintainers fight to keep it there. I do not want the software repo to be censored. If I don't like a piece of software, I can avoid using it.

    The package is not shipped with Debian. The package is not shown to a user anywhere in Debian. A user has to go out of their way to acquire the package.
