This contains an implementation of the Qualcomm Touring family of
encryption
algorithms and has the following restriction:
# 5. The Turing family of encryption algorithms are covered by patents in
# the United States of America and other countries. A free and
# irrevocable license is hereby granted for the use of such patents to
# the extent required to utilize the Turing family of encryption
# algorithms for any purpose, subject to the condition that any
# commercial product utilising any of the Turing family of encryption
# algorithms should show the words "Encryption by QUALCOMM" either on the
# product or in the associated documentation.
and hence should be considered nonfree.
How is that nonfree? BSD and MIT have similar provisions:
MIT:
[...]
- The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be
included in all copies of the documentation.
