No. AMD is afraid that someone at Nvidia, IBM, or elsewhere, will look through their open source code and see that they are violating one of Nvidia/IBM/whomever's patent, and sues them for not just the linux driver, that opens the door to discovery on all their other platforms as well.

Yes, they are legally binding.

Unfortunately, there is no monitoring or enforcement mechanism, so effectively it is as if there are no conditions applied.

Well, I suppose some crazy guy at AT&T will read the document, and go "hey, we should be doing this", maybe try to actually implement some of the rules in his department and then be summarily fired. It's possible, but unlikely.

the uconnect can still display the settings just fine [I guess, potentially a rogue program could try to trick the user by displaying false data on the screen], but it shouldn't be allowed to control the settings.

And that's the rub, the extra couple of dollars for separate, completely independent buttons is too much...
