They are the one (major GPU) vendor which makes NO effort to support Free
Software WHATSOEVER. NO source code (except some very old contributions to "nv"
with no acceleration support, and those are intentionally obfuscated, which is
blatantly against the spirit of Free Software, a lot of work Nouveau has to do
is unobfuscating that code), NO specs (whatsoever - AFAIK they don't even
provide them under an NDA), and repeated confirmation that they DON'T care at
all about Free Software.
