I think you are referring to dual-use technologies [1], where the "dual" use means civilian and military. The list of technologies that are deemed "dual-use" is quite explicit and can be found in the Wassenaar Arrangement document [2]. In that document you'll find out there are plenty of paragraphs about software, for example on page 139 "software application programs designed to be hosted on general purpose computers located at Air Traffic Control centres and capable of accepting radar target data from more than four primary radars". I would be extraordinarily surprised if Autodesk were not in compliance with this rule. Similarly, as soon as a rule were passed to limit the use of a technology to ecologically damaging activities, Autodesk's Legal department would start combing through it and make sure they are in compliance, and if not, they'll see what steps to take to fall in compliance at the earliest date possible.
