I doubt it. AMD's pulled the wool over our eyes in an effort to pacify the
larger community and doesn't appear to really care about free software. Then
again, does any company? That is not to say that there aren't people within
who care and/or business models built around free software. What I'm saying
is it's not being done by the company for altruistic reasons and I'm doubtful
any government has the intelligence to force the matter for security related
reasons.
While it is a critical component for security and privacy that software be
free it's not the only necessity. We really do need to do more to secure free
software. However there are a lack of developers and a lack of developers who
code properly or spend the time to do independent code reviews.
In an ideal situation we would have plenty of developers and there would be
lots of code review of every commit by at least 1-2 others.
