You are really missing the point.
All versions of Linux are required to have the source code for everything available to anyone that wants it. Linus Torvolds set that is stone with the GNU license. Maybe you should read about that....
99.99% of the drivers have the source code available and there are alternatives to the .01% that the source code has yet to be released. The biggest offenders of this are video card drivers. And I would bet that you have a certified driver installed for your video card that the source code is in that .01% How are you going to inspect the code in that?
Debian's philosophy is not that much different from other destros, but the campaign to slam others is.
Maybe you should be running this http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ It is fits what you claim would be the best Linux to run..... It is based on the Debian core, and does not have any "blob" in it at all. The whole thing is about 50 megabytes and will scream on a 486 with 128 meg of memory..............
Some things are easy to explain, other things are not........ <- Store -> <-Freebies->
