Others already jumped at this. I'll just point it is a non-sequitur. First, it does not say _which_ government. Mine and yours are probably different, and have different guidelines, thresholds and laws, and obeying _all_ governments... is beyond legal. I cannot simultaneously obey two countries which are cross-embargoed, just to cite an example on export restrictions. Besides this, having a license or contract stipulate "you must follow the law" is useless. If I'm doing something illegal, why would I be bothered by the terms of a free software license agreement? > //4.

Oh, and this might be (I don't know) an "advertising clause", what made the 4-clause BSD license incompatible with the GPL.
