tor-browser-bundle: update license to free
The Tor Browser Bundle is free software under various licenses: > Can I distribute Tor? > > Yes. > > The Tor software is free software. This means we give you the rights > to redistribute the Tor software, either modified or unmodified, > either for a fee or gratis. You don't have to ask us for specific > permission. > > However, if you want to redistribute the Tor software you must follow > our LICENSE. Essentially this means that you need to include our > LICENSE file along with whatever part of the Tor software you're > distributing. > > Most people who ask us this question don't want to distribute just the > Tor software, though. They want to distribute the Tor Browser. This > includes Firefox Extended Support Release, and the NoScript and > HTTPS-Everywhere extensions. You will need to follow the license for > those programs as well. Both of those Firefox extensions are > distributed under the GNU General Public License, while Firefox ESR is > released under the Mozilla Public License. The simplest way to obey > their licenses is to include the source code for these programs > everywhere you include the bundles themselves. (https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#DistributingTor) tor-browser-bundle-bin is already marked as licenses.free, so it doesn't really make sense that this one is marked as unfree.
