The only thing that would happen is that the page that you use the free content on would not rank well in Google, which is not neccesarily too much of a bad thing. Your site in general won't receive a Google penalty.
You will still have an extra article on your site that would be an interesting read to the visitors, regardless of whether or not it ranks in the SEs. The articles are mainly available for webmasters to bulk up their sites a little with more content for their visitors.
