I'm putting it in the category of general purpose transient
incompetency, because it is so worthy of ridicule it could never have
achieved the nefarious end goal an imaginative mind would imagine.

Also in that category, is I'm only finding the updated license
reported on Tom's Hardware and not Intel's blog or press release
pages. So, I'm chocking it up to Intel just stepping on their own dick
again. *shrug*
