Comment (by SeanCollins):

 Well, then I must ask the next question. Since inclusion would violate
 some US law, would making these optional packages hosted outside of the
 USA as some open source projects are, be a viable alternative. I have seen
 prompts using ubuntu etc, about installing downloading MP3 codecs etc
 after a first system start.

 More or less just asking if theres is a viable alternative to violating US
 laws, while mitigating a sorespot in the OS and the current software
 stack.
