My confusion is who is a 3rd party under this agreement? Are users not 3rd parties? How can a distribution be responsible for and have any power over users, if the first two parties are Intel + distribution, and the 3rd party is the user? I do find hilarious the "don't download this until you've downloaded and read and agreed to the agreement!" (paraphrased) clause at the top.
