I found this in PiDiP's LICENSE.txt :
"NOT FOR MILITARY OR REPRESSIVE USE !!!"
This goes against FSF/GNU's FSD, rule "Freedom Zero" (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html)
And also against OSI's OSD, rule 6 (http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php)
And as such, PiDiP is not Free Software. It may not be distributed as part of Debian's "main" and thus instead should be put in "non-free".
