[U-Boot] U-book and GPLv3? (fwd)

    I would like to add that sometimes regulations EXPLICITELY require secure
    boot. No product can be approved without it. And this does not have anything
    to do with public's freedom. Just one example is gambling industry which I
    happen to work right now.

Gambling machines for casinos are not consumer products, so GPLv3's
requirement to deliver installation information does not apply to
them.
