Having heard "fire hazard" from a nvidia fan as a justification for their user-hostile signed firmware (it blocks free drivers from using the cards at full speed), now I think we can put that excuse among the myths. I see no good will in blocking free Linux drivers, just the same crap that earned Torvald's salute. That they now opened a kernel driver is small improvement if the firmware remains signed.
