No, it isn't, and the malice comes entirely from circumstances foisted on the Free/Libre Open Source community by Nvidia's inherent user hostility at the behest of corporate America/the music/content delivery industry.
It isn't that hard to write a manual. It isn't that hard to respect user freedom to use tge device they purchased. It isn't that hard to just leave well enough alone.
But no.... Nvidia just couldn't.

Meanwhile the company responsible for the biggest security issues in the last decade still provides its CPU microcode as signed binary blob and the FLOS community is fine with that because someone at the FSF drew a random line to stand on. I will accept the FLOS communities hatred of NVIDIA the moment it stops bending over backward for the company that brought us Meltdown, Spectre, RowHammer (who needs consumer grade ECC anyway), etc. .
