Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.A similar bug requesting a Free Software only filter has
been reported in bug  #630731. Do you think that would solve the problem
for you too?

Title:
  Advertises proprietary software

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Software Center advertises and promotes proprietary software to me.
  As an adherent to the ideals of free software, I find this offensive.
  I will never purchase proprietary software or support the proprietary software industry that restrict the freedom of users.
  Since I will never purchase proprietary software, not only is it offensive, but also useless and extraneous.

  I would like to be able to disable Ubuntu Software Center from
  displaying proprietary software.
