If the code were kept secret, or if you could prevent such use with DRM, copyright law would be irrelevant. By having the code in the open, you don't 'implicitly allow' unlicensed uses -- you just become reliant on copyright

I'd say windows 10 almost brings things back to the Windows 2000 era in this respect. Changing the wallpaper changes the accent colour (or you can pick one seperately), and you can choose whether titlebars have that accent. A fake dial

I wouldn't be surprised if it's also used to make fn+` = Esc, fn+1 = F1 etc That's how my filco Minila & other 60% keyboards implement the F keys, and IMO it's an improvement. [though... I do flip the ` key to be ESC
