This code is not free in the sense most of us consider it. Please see
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html

A more proper word for this code is a gratis proprietary binary.

It's as far away from free software as possible. 

``Free software'' is a matter of liberty, not price. 

You should be free to redistribute copies, either with or without
modifications, either gratis or charging a fee for distribution, to
anyone anywhere. Being free to do these things means (among other
things) that you do not have to ask or pay for permission.

In order for the freedoms to make changes, and to publish improved
versions, to be meaningful, you must have access to the source code of
the program. Therefore, accessibility of source code is a necessary
condition for free software.
