It doesn't remove freedom, it allows freedom to be removed. I don't mean
that the original work can be made unfree, but that it can be made
unfree in any instance where it is incorporated into another work. That
isn't demagogery, it's something that happens.
If one regards PD as more "free" than BY-SA, then OSM is an example of
this happening. ;-)
