Psst, here's a copy of Facebook's secret code -- http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/v1/yp/r/Ub2OCc5xWCb.js
They just have to provide the code under a free license. Running the code is another problem entirely.
We're not talking about forcing anyone to do anything -- but JavaScript is programming code too.
The FSF's goal is for all the software a user runs on their computer to be free software -- without a license, the software would be full copyright and not in a fit state for modification. This is completely within the goals of the FSF.
Most Facebook users use a browser written in C++ -- they don't know that either, yet free software browsers and rendering engines remain in common usage.

Apple get called draconian because of the things they do.
Being a good citizen in free software doesn't just mean doing those things in your own self interest to do, of which we agree Apple do a lot, but also not doing things that might be perceived as in your own short term self interest that are unethical (of which Apple also do plenty).
Don't worry, you're only a danger to the public if you had sexual thought about somebody < 16 years old...
